 >:(    :(      Oh  man, why???. I took ol Blue's engine apart to do some head repairs. After I degreased and painted the aluminum intake for my V6 2.8, I set it outside my shop to dry. Then it got swiped.  I don't normally cry over car stuff, but right now thats how it feels. I feel like setting a trap for these guys and going after them. I'm on the edge, it's personal, you know???   :-[

My nephew laid 4 Mustang aluminum wheels behind his garage so they would be safe, the next time he looked they were gone. No one supposedly knew they were there!
