end of season...

Ok so i think my camaro was taken on its last drive today... the heater core is leaking and getting worse, the trans is somehow still moving but getting worse, the clutch is worn and deteriorating... SO since my inspection is up this month anyways i think im not going to drive it for the time being so i dont damage the motor or get stuck somewhere without a trans.

so thats where my car sits as of right now.

You mean your car isn't supposed to sound like it has straight cut gears? Or whine almost as much as you do?

yeah it kinda sucks it ended early, i kinda was hoping to sweak a track run and maybe til november... i have a newer trans for the car but i want to get it looked at and some new seals put on before i put it in. the heater core i kinda new it was iffy cause occasionally i would smell antifreeze but now its constant and dripping inside... not cool.
