just make sure u get a better job done on the engine conversion this time maybe u wont hate it then and go out and do another stupid thing like buy a saxo. Dont worry tho we understand that everyone makes mistakes. No comments on the 172. lol

Wasn't the problems due to his budget not being big enough...

he sold it because of that but the problems were not because of the budget
how is the alternater belt being too small his fault? and the gear linkage falling apart when these are things beardy did
and the person who has it now who is an electriction has noticed bits of crap wiring
