Stupid, long story that I won't get into. But, I poked a hole in my stock LS1, F-body oil pan. Need a new-to-me one. Anyone have one laying around that they don't need anymore?

Nothing as glamorous as all that.

Got the car home and it was pouring rain. Kids were asleep in the house, so I was going to push the car off the trailer. However, my driveway is sloped. The only way to get the tongue up is to disconnect the truck and jack it up. I chocked all 4 trailer wheels to prevent it from moving. Then, in anticipation of the trailer cantilevering when the car shifted to the rear, I put a jack stand under the rear of the trailer.

I guess that the wheel chocks slipped a little on the wet cement. When the trailer tilted to the back, it just kept going. I figured that, since it was already down, I'd just roll the car off. But, it wouldn't budge.

I look underneath the car, and I see an oil slick running down the driveway, and the jack stand stuck in the oil pan. When I jacked the trailer up, the jackstand lifted off the ground and stuck to the pan.

About the only good news was that, since the cement was already wet, none of the oil stained the driveway.

I was nice and pissed for a while. Not really fun to be around me that evening.
