lol i was curious to see how a single shot HDR picture would turn out, and technically its Photomatix, not Photoshop. hahahaha same shit different smell. ill get alot of pics of her real soon, with no photoshopping or anything done to them. just straight off the camera. this thing is in pretty damn good shape, especially for being a local country car!!

thanx. im sure im not the only guy on the site who knows how to make an HDR picture. its actually not hard. these arent even really finished. i run em thru photoshop after and do things... add a border and call it done. i usually dont bother posting pictures that are 3888 x 2592. plus they take up too much room on my crappy old HD.

ok... the car is going to be at the mechanics shop tomorrow for the motor transplant.... should be done by monday i hear. biggrin im pumped i cant wait to drive it. from there it goes to the detailers to have the windows tinted, nice n black... plus the tail lights. then im done with mods for a while. (well except for the fact i get powder coating for cheap/free im gonna do up all the brackets from the original motor, and put them on the new one slowly. maybe even do a few of the other things under the hood too while im at it.

there y'all are. some un-photoshopped pictures of my Lumina.
(oh and i found out its a 91!!!)
comments, please.
it was sitting too close to the car infront of it for me to get pictures of the nose damage. but its pretty minor and should be able to be fixed pretty easily.

-are these pictures big enough? i could upload bigger ones. biggrin hahaha jk

ok, so my mechanic FINALLY got to work on my car, and got the engine out. through the top.
while doing this he found out that the engine DOES NOT ROTATE so he had to take the oil pan off to get the transmission to separate from the engine. while doing this he found out that the oil pump for some reason decided to just explode. the pickup was laying in the oil pan, ripped from the pump and the pump itself was in 3 pieces (the casing was cracked to shit) PLUS after finding this out *learning the motor is toast. i decided i wanted to see what the plugs looked like, and pulled the front right plug wire out, realizing it wasnt connected in the first place.... lol and that it had about 2" of water in it, as did the other two front ones.... i decided to stay away from the back ones till the motor is out.

... also i may sell the car. it depends on how this other car im going to look at tomorrow looks like. its supposed to be a steal @ $600... we'll see.

man, either everyone hates me here or this place is dead...
is it time to move on to w-body.com?? im not gonna lie, i took a look around there, its pretty nice! especially compared to before.

-and informative. most of the help i needed was posted in a faq section. no need to ask and wait for replies or to search thru the threads for the one you want going by key words that never get found in the right order.

ahhhh maybe i just dont know how to use a forum?? i dunno. but i bet i dont stay here long. and my two main reasons are
1.) you guys.
2.) the other place looks cooler, i wanna be a cool kid.
