New repairs update.

[Tonnerre]

Here are some of the pics of the car. The hood latch messed up so I bought hood pins. They will be coming in the next few days.

You're finally fixing it. Good job.

[stu]

Looks wonderful compared to before. Good job.

[floored4door]

EDIT: Socket set. Get er done. Loving the side skirts! :rofl:

The is the busted hood latch. It is reall messed up. The hood pins are comming in the next few days.

[smithz]

That's not an F-150 front end at all... I'm disappointed.

[Nate]

Did you put the rebar and all that stuff in there?

[Brian]

looks terrible.

[HONDA GHANDI]

You need to fix the camber issue on that right rear wheel before you drive it. You will be in another pickle if you dont.

[Tonnerre]

That is an easy fix. I can just lower it. I raised it after the accident. I can get - camber if I lower it some.

[HondaPower]

Hmm wow?

[Kwando]

speachless... no headlights?

Yeah youre right. Alignments are as easy as that. hitting a curb couldnt have possibly bent anything on the susp either.

[smithz]

Anyone else notice the pile of leftover duct tape... :rofl:

[Skaterkid]

Ghandi got burned by the awesome knowledge of Tonnere ;)

[Mark_H]

Since you like painting so much, paint the wiper arms black. (remove them from the car before you paint them)
It's a shame you have to put hood pins on it, right when your getting it back together your ricing it out more with hood pins.

I should have known better then to try to brain wrestle Tonnerre.

Why would he take them off first? That goes against the very fabric that is Tonnerre...

I think he should paint them, and the new front bumper cover Type-Red.

It will not latch if I do not get them. Like I said the front is off so I can not use the normal hood latch.

i dont see a rad suport under there.you might want to get one of those first i dont think the front bumper is going to stay on very well or to long with duck tape.

Yeah, that'll work.

If you look closely you can see the radaitor support through the holes for the headlights. It is black.

[NZDarren]

Can you just go push it off a cliff somewhere and get a bus pass or a bicycle?
Not sure you have the knowledge or $$$ to make drivable.

[Tonnerre]

Sold tonight for $900. I am getting 400 from the trek so now my buget for a motorcycle is 1.8k.

[smithz]

Tonnerre, seriously. How in the fuck do you expect to mount an F-150 front end on a motorcycle? Duct tape has it's limits you know...

[twistedimage]

duct tape has no limits^^^^


if you cant duck it f#$k it

[Tonnerre]

I am not going to modify the motorcycle when I get it except for more power once I get good at it.

[NZDarren]

You understand that it gets real cold in winter and snows?
I ride my motorcycle as often as I can in winter but you will have to spend $$$ on good gear.
Make sure you leave enough money aside for helmet/gloves/jacket and possibly pants and boots as well.

Before you go buy one do a MSF course and see if this really is something for you.

More powa is what an F-150 front end conversion gets you... duh.

Where is one of theses?

[smithz]

Where is one of theses?
Actually it's spelled thesis and it's usually associated with a masters degree. However you generally must complete a bachelors degree prior to beginning on a masters.

Now get busy on that front end.

:rofl:

You have to pay to take the MSF course then from there you can just get your endorsement added to the license without a written or driven exam from the DMV.

[Tonnerre]

How much?

[smithz]

It's around $200ish.

[ryanman]

one meeeeelion dowlars

Logic like that has no place with Tonnerre!

Wrong-O unless they changed the laws recently. You still have to take a written exam no matter what. The class card exempts you from the riding test. I was able to take the written without studying the DMV book though.

If you want info on where to take the classes look up the course at any community college. It is a weekend long and well worth it.

From what I heard you take the written and riding test during the course. That's why the DMV doesn't require you to take it again. This is what my friends told me, so it's second hand info.

I don't recall taking a written test at the DMV, only during the class. And as everyone else has said, the class is well worth the time and money.

[Nate]

Weird, I still had to take the written test at the DMV after both tests at the course. This was in 98 though so it could have changed.

[Brian]

I didn't have to take a written or riding test at the dmv after taking the course. Just had a piece of paper to show the dmv.

[Tonnerre]

Quick question, I got a drivers licence do i need to take the writen test still or will that work?
