@#$X%$#&!!!!!
Dammit, it is one thing after another.
So BTK sells me a like new fuel tank for the cheap. Perfect. I clean it & paint it Sunday & tonight I go to put it in. 20 minutes, done. No problems. I crawl out from under the car and I see the license plate isn't closed. Guess what - wrong tank. Filler neck is wrong. I totally forgot the neck changed when the back bumpers changes after 77. Dammit.
Back to the auto parts store. Advance has them for $135, online says it ships in one day, so I'll stop by there in the AM, maybe the store can get it in 1 day and I won't lose too much time. I totally planned on driving it all afternoon Saturday. I want to be a mod with a running f body!!!!!
I had to vent.
