eeshhhh
trying to figure out someones failed work has to be the hardest thing to do, because you really dont know whats missing or there
if you have the time and dont give 2 ***** about emmissions we could put her back together based off my fc since there both s4's
but IMO your better off finding something with just a blown engine, untouched that you can swap in a new/used good short/long block into
should go for about the same price anyways

A few odds and ends still left from my partout. I'd still prefer local buyers for the rest of it.

i love haters....LOL....see you this weekend dude..
i just called dave this afternoon, and he sounds sick, and everybody was sick.
they were backed up, but he said that he really really wants to start the car this weekend. all the engine is in already, just need to manage it.
this weekend, he is planning to start it, but by having experiences from dave, i believe he will start it next weekend
it's fine, save me a parking spot because i can't park in my cousin's house anyway, it has a lot of snow.
we will see this weekend..

I'd like to but I don't know anymore. I want to make sure my car gets tuned and some issues are fixed up. I'm sure things would be cleared up if it wasn't snowing and it would take less than a week to get the car straight but I no longer believe in reason and logic when anything is involved with my car. 
Guys bad news. I called NV and they said they only had one cabin left 12 miles away. I called Phil as well and he said that this is most likely true. Unless there is a cabin walking distance to NV I don't think I want to go. I'm going to call them one more time to see what I can do.
Kel seems down to go. I think Dave sounded like he was down as well. We should try to get a head count or something no?
