Had to appear in the federal courthouse in Columbus Ohio on Thursday. Luckily it was a good type of appearance as I was granted citizenship to the USA. Thought I would share some pictures (large so I am only posting links)

The ABS in my Tahoe has been acting up lately. It seems there is a problem with the ABS tone rings. The only way to get to a repair those seems to be a replacement of the hub/wheel bearing/tone ring assembly. Any recommendations on where to get these for a good price? Our local NAPA is about $270 each.

with a deer on Tuesday evening. She is fine, the deer did not survive and her Jetta is not looking too good:

Well, the Jetta is on a trailer and will be delivered to Autobody Specialists in the morning. The oilpan also needs replacing and the drivers door has a couple of dents. I think the car might just be totalled.

Short notice post but I am in Austin Texas until tomorrow morning. The business meeting I attended finshed a lot earlier than anticipated and I will be free for the evening. If someone wants to get together we could work something out.

Contact me by PM or call my hotel: 512-442-4040 ask for Neil Claasen.

It is indeed the replacement for the Blue Flame Spitter. (Garrett, get ready, this one wants some of your blood too (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/whip.gif) )

It did not drive onto the trailer. Between Orion (the previous owner) and myself we managed to get it on the trailer and secured. On Sunday I was alone and thought it would be worth it to try and start the car. I was successful and can now understand why the plugs foul so quickly. Although there was some white smoke (I am guessing from the car not driving too much) it was mostly black. I think you could probably ignite the exhaust gases. At least it smells that way.

H Stock here I come!
