Horrible. Horrible Audi Weekend
I MUST have offended the Gods.
One: Pick up the Coupe from the bonehead mechanic who fouled my damper
install (he gave me a new noise!) and he had finally fixed evrything
right! Land sakes!!!
I go over one itty bitty pothole, and the left rear shock pulls a Polaris
missle imitation into the trunk. Looks like bonehead used cheap-o parts.
Now I'm riding on a spring only. Goes back to him today. With a strong
urging to do the right thing or I'll kill his Cereal.
Two: The REAL heartache? The 85 parts coupe with an almost perfect body
was used by a couple of *&!@#$^% _* *&^%$*^& *^&*)*&$%^$#
*^& landscapers as a scaffold to cut hedges at my
dad's house. I guess they figured, hey this things in a pen, looks like
it doesn't run, let's walk on it. DESTROYED the hood. Absolutely
DESTROYED it. And the roof. And nearly gave me a heart attack. I was
like an animal. The body WAS in great, great shape. I was looking
forward to using those parts for me or listers (sorry Cello, that hood's a
goner).
Phew. Since I didn't have an aneurism yesterday, I know I never will.
