spent the day with my dad today, was going to take "snow flake" [the name my daughter chose for my teener] to get a couple of new mufflers put on.
wellllll..... the mufflers i had told them i wanted to use they didnt get because they had some thing that they had in stock that cross refrenced fit. these P.of S. were 2" nipple and necked down to about 1.5 " tube inside! then i asked them how much the mufflers cost....... 86.00 each! aaaaahhhhggggg i told then to ---------- ------------- ---------------!!!!!!! i'll get my own. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ar15.gif) so i went up to napa and asked them if they had the muffler i wanted...... "yes sir we have two in stock" was the reply. and how much ? " $23.00 " yeah. i'll take em. so i go to my buddies house to barrow his new welder that he hasn't even used yet. and spend the next 4.5 hrs derusting the pipes for paint and weld- blow holes thru old thin pipe and new mufflers.
