08 Wrangler 278,900 miles
For the cost, it’s cheaper and quicker to put this extra Gen 3 into it.

Yep. Being I have the Hemi, it’ll be about 1500 to swap it in. A rebuild kit is 2500 , if it needs machine work, at least 2 grand more. A new v6 is 12,800 right now tooGot some use outa dat one

Friend has an 07 jeep was dying. He tore it down and had the heads re-done. Then he tore his bicep at work. Once he gets that healed up, I will be helping put back together. He's pretty meticulous, so should'nt be too much trouble...
Really contemplating trading it in but I don’t want another car payment when we’re trying to build a house.

Everyone I know of -including his mechanic and his wife , wanted him to just sell it as-is and move on. He doesn't need the vehicle. He is very 'mechanically inclined' but not a car mechanic. I think he just wanted a project...

Get something off the to-do list, add something else. 
Our front 'screen door has always stuck a little, but was very useable. After painting the trim around it last week, it looked crappy. I cleaned it good. Next day it was sticking more than usual. Last 2 days, won't close at all. I was planning to replace it soon, but not yet. It's off now, so need to fill holes and paint then will get a new one...

I have a theory: nobody likes working on cars. we all just tolerate it because it is a required step in the process of having fun with them.
I am messing with fuel lines and I just opened up three new cuts in my hand from scraping them on the manifold covered with gas. and now my coffee tastes like gas.

Jeep is done.
Toyota suv had a brake rattle after blowing a tire. Caliper mount loosened. Pulled bolts, cleaned and loctited and its done too.
Then went back into storage building and started cleaning it up some more.

I love working on cars. I just do not like having to redo stuff. Especially when the one thing I paid to have done is fed up!!I have a theory: nobody likes working on cars. we all just tolerate it because it is a required step in the process of having fun with them.

exactly my point. some stuff Is fun and the gratification Is great, but goddamn I just had to pull apart the fuel line I just finished because I forgot the heat shielding around it.
I knew the transmission in my Dart would be a real bear to remove after the Gear Vendor was installed, so I paid good money to have a transmission rebuilt by an excellent re builder. Or so i thought. Freakin thing will not shift correctly!!exactly my point. some stuff Is fun and the gratification Is great, but goddamn I just had to pull apart the fuel line I just finished because I forgot the heat shielding around it.
