    No homo.

    Good luck!
    lmao. ....no


    Just went to the wreckers and got some trim parts for it that are broken, like the trunk garnish by the licence plate light, and the panel on the driver's door that covers the screw holes for the mirror. Picked up a water pump for $43 with a $50 gift card my room mate gave me, and bought some cleaning supplies.

    There was a 93 Mazda 323 at the wreckers I had my eye on a little while ago. It's all fixed up, runs great and is in decent shape. Easily an $800 car all day long. Needs a $100 out of province inspection and I can get the car for $300, and be into it for $400. If I sell the Jetta, I will pay my rent and maybe go buy the 323 and flip that and make another $300-600 on it.

      FML. In the week or so since you lost your job, youve managed to sign up for unemployment, (damn near) flip a VW and soon to be flipping a Mazda. I havent done shit, lol.

        haha, It hasn't even been a full week yet. :P I'm resourceful and do what I can with what I've got.

        I have no family out here to depend on and help me out. This is the first time I've been jobless since I moved out of my parent's house.


        I picked up the water pump for the Jetta, so I will start on that tomorrow. That's gonna take me a few hours to do. Just spent the last couple hours detailing that bitch from top to bottom, inside and out. Looks like a beauty all shined up! It was a smoker's car too, so I bought this air freshener that you're supposed to put inside while the car is running with the vents on, and the freshener sprays throughout the car and through the vents. What I can say is that I no longer smell smoke.

        It's 5pm, and I'm surprised I haven't had a single call or email on the car all day, even listed at $1000. On another note, while at the wreckers, I ran into a guy searching for VW parts and ended up helping him out and later exchanged numbers and found out he lives a couple blocks away from me. Interesting and productive day to say the least lol.

          I got the water pump all replaced in the Jetta. Runs good as new with no leaks.

          Replaced some missing and broken trim pieces, detailed it inside and out and since it had no radio, I got a Kenwood deck from the wreckers.


          Got a guy coming to look at it tonight with it posted for $1000.

              Now I've got wind of a 1991 Passat that needs a new head. Car is $400, great shape, 5 speed and only 169k KM on it.

              There's an identical running Passat at the wreckers, which could be a suitable donor car.

                  No plans for school. Did trade school 2 years ago and ended up being a huge waste of time, money and effort. I'm a licenced gas fitter in Ontario, but they don't even recognize the licence here and I'd have to take the course all over again because I can't even write a challenge test for it here.

                  I have an interview for CP Rail next Tuesday and applied to a couple other places. Doesn't seem like I'll from any of them til next week at the earliest.
