Franken Buggy action Video

[Master Hack]

Frank failed his first major event since Revision 853B on the drive axles/suspension, last winter.
The torque converter sheared off the studs and pulled the engine side cover off, spraying hot oil everywhere in the process.
Plans for revision 854A are underway now.
Enjoy the video from my afternoon in the hammock, consuming adult beverages!

In other exciting action, here it is back on the trailer waiting to go home!

I’m surprised that dodge was able to pull all that weight. Pictures of the damage would have been nice!

You one of dem that slows way down when driving by an accident, looking for blood, gore and guts?
Ain't much to see but an oil mess.

Are you a Chevy fan? Or Ford or Toyota?

 

[Denny]

GM and old Chrysler!

Well, that Dodge is Chrysler + Cummins, and its old!
Unbeatable!

 

[Denny]

Nope, they come to me! I’m a security guard in a hospital. It’s a lot different than being a mechanic for the last 40 years!

I love GM.

I'm done with those clowns!
I have one left that I will keep, but the trucks are junk. 75K mile disposable crap!

I've heard that of the new ones. I was talking classics. Do you dislike them as much to?

 

[Denny]

Classics are never bad!

 

[Speedster]

Classics are never bad!

Agreed! I edited my post.

 

[Master Hack]

I've heard that of the new ones. I was talking classics. Are they that bad to?

The classics are OK in my book. Just so dissapointing that they can't build cars and trucks that last. It started going downhill in 1987, for me.
List of failed GM crap available on request.

Sadly, if l need another vehicle in the future, it will most likley be German or Japanese.
l have good vehicles that should last as long as l do. Barring a disaster, l don't plan on buying another vehicle, ever.

"I wish a Ford and a Chevy would still last ten years like they should"-In the words of Merle Haggard.

You all probably know the Merle song I referenced, but for those of you who might not: (or just want to listen):

Work truck is a 03 tundra with 267k oil is still honey colored after 9k interval. No leaks or drools.
But nothing beats the looks of classic Mopars.

So the meds you make us pay for are “acquired” from a hospital?

 

[Denny]

No, they don’t give out these kind. Ahhh, wait that don’t sound right. My Dr. prescribes my meds. I only take them when I want to stay alive.
