    Default $150 beater and its beat to hell...


    My brother bought it a few days ago.








    The only good part of the car is it runs.


    Were pulling the motor out and dropping it into his black 2 door that's in great condition. Threw a rod after 300,000+ miles
    Already pulled the blown motor out it only took 5 hours. Worst part is I lost a finger nail in the process. Really it got tore off

    You got that right. I rolled over on my hand last night and woke up screaming. It feels like its in a vice being crushed.

    It'll fall off. I had a friend that had his nail split from the bed only 1/4th into the nail bed, leaving it attached at 3/4, it slowly split more and more over about a month's time, fell off, THEN regrew from the beginning over about a month again. It's dead tissue, what's disconnected will not just GROW back in, it'll recreate FROM the bed though.

    ^^ Yeah, I drew a frame of a man running on each fan blade. That is him running at idle
