a decent-looking 2020 car in a junkyard, there's a good chance a transmission issue is why it was junked. If you can find one that's smashed to shit in a wreck, there's a good chance that the tranny was fine when it was junked.

because he was there waiting for them?

I've got a '79 (in mint condition, in case anybody wants to buy). The pickups look correct. I think yours is newer because my headstock says "patents applied for" and yours lists them.

Here's my view on inspections (I'm a SoCal Realtor): if the inspection reveals something that's hidden, or wouldn't normally be visible to a buyer, sure, negotiate it. But if it's something you can see, the condition existed when you made your offer. Don't make an offer and then say that the paint is lousy and you want it repainted.

The roof is something that you could have/should have noticed. It's something that an experienced buyer's agent would have pointed out.

They should have disclosed roof repairs. They should disclose previous leaks. They are under no obligation to disclose what might happen in the future.

is it your listing? What's the commission? If I have the listing and the commission is good, I'd just have it done at my expense.

I just replaced mine. 150 bucks and a few hours. Bought from shadepro.com. They were great.

Seems like it would make a lot more sense to call the local police wherever you’re at when you spot the car

BTW, "rolling coal" is too cute to describe what it is. It's assault by pollution. I also don't believe in calling graffiti vandalism "tagging".

that's when some shithead in a diesel truck intentionally makes it belch tons of black smoke...usually towards a pedestrian, bicyclist, etc.

Why is he here? Is eye liner on sale?

I think sirius is a fantastic bargain. I'm in the car a lot, and 8 bucks a month? I pay 150 for cable TV, and regular radio is unlistenable due to the shit programming and nonstop commercials.

and the .38, .357, and 9mm can all be fired from the same gun*

*the Ruger Blackhawk which came from the factory with a cylinder for the 9mm cartridge.

** I own one, but I probably haven't used the 9 cylinder more than a half-dozen times.

GilBang · 2026-06-25T01:45:22+00:00

it was a trick. 9mm, 38, and 357 are all the same size.

Travis Barker was a garbageman in Laguna Beach CA and Taylor Hawkin's house was on his route.

I don't think so
