Default Oh where oh where has nicko_bud gone!!!

Hey guys and gals,

Kinda Pointless thread but I need to vent so your all going to have to deal with it. :P LOL

The last 3 weeks have been that f&*ked up for me its not funny. After my head blew on the EA i came here looking for advice. And after OED666 HELPED me decided to put an au donk in it. by the time I got all the parts needed bar the engine... EL thermos, EL Radiator, Davies craig switch, el aircon, p/steering pump, au altenator and au starter and the engine on hold due to a cash shortage it was the late oct. Now my place is to small to do any work i need to transport it to my folks place in the riverland. that was ok coz i was able to coax my old man to come down with the car trailer for a carton . Anywho since i work nights and dad was coming down i decided to push it on the street so we didnt have to dick around in the morning and with a stupoid thought i decided to put all my parts in the boot.

3am get a call from the police..... the "beast" had been violated...

THE SONS OF BEACHES Tried to push start the car they pushed it about 200m from my place and when they couldnt get it to start they decided to steal anything loose.. so all my parts are gone my stereo.. my stupid wobbling dog head that an ex gave me and the procedure to smash, dent, scrap and tear off any part they could.. they even ripped the hood and the boot off the hinges :(.

So i am now driving a TN magna ( go the 2600 astron )

the following wednesday i severly sprained my ankle at basketball tearing most of the major ligaments in my ankle. i managed 2 weeks off work until the money ran out ..

Then my computer fried because of a surge due to the storms here in adelaide so im using and old one ATM

Im currently eyeing of an EB Fairmont on gas.. it emac and low k's and a mates

Which will be getting a T5 conversion !!!!

Sorry for the rant however I am ****ED!!

one more thing!!

I cant wait to get back into an E-series

Damn, you've had a bad run. Shame about the car. A real low act. The T5 conversion on the new car should be good. It's definately worth it.

Nah i put all the parts in the car.. it wasn't insured, i transfered it to the magna while the EA was KIA. I just simply couildn't afford to insure 2 cars.. and if it was they would say it was a write off becasue it was only insured for $2500 and the damage and loss was way more than that.


Yeah im hoping Karma kicks in heps bad!!! any one interested in starting an e-series lynch mob? :P LOL
