I hate FedEx! Options

[Bleyseng]

The rest of my 914 parts and the Westy parts were to be delivered on Friday from Jake.

I am home early for once cuz it was hot in Seattle soo about 6 oclock I check into the FedEx site for tracking the package. See the stupid note on the site that they tried to deliver at 4:19PM. Yeah, right since I was washing the cars outside from 4PM to 5PM just to be around IF they showed up. assholes were probably running late on their route so they skipped me and my 45lbs package.

Gotta request shipping by UPS cuz they will drop off anything at the back door.

I hate FED EX!!!!!
I am sure they will "attempt" to deliver on Monday BUT I will have to drive down to the wharehouse like effin always to pick up my effin package......
another weekend shot to hell cuz I gots no parts..

rant over!

Oh, they did swing by and drop off a small package for Monique on Friday in the morning.

The hardest part of building crap is waiting for parts. More often than not it's my fault like a broken head stud, bunged nut, and lost ring. The waiting is hard.

I had an episode yesterday. We're getting ready to do the front main seal. I find the O-ring in the gasket set but, WTF no seals. Come to find out, they don't include main seals. That just never occurred to me. So Saturday about 1:30 I start calling around. Of course no one has them until I call Oval's in Federal Way. Yep, they got them and are open until 4. So I ask who makes em. The lady says it starts with an E and says Germany. I'm on my way. I don't know how much Type IV stuff they have but, if you're short give them a call.

I got up there and there was a swap meet (type 1 mostly) Still it's fun to look at old parts. I bought Elring seals $14 bucks for the pair met Spirited Threiber and had a great drive.

We'll finish the long block today.
