A "Don't do this" special report, with pics. Big ones.

Hey, lookime, I'm drivin my ma's Grand Cherokee for the weekend.

Let me show you why.


The pulley's keyhole.

The crank thingy's key.

I have a new pulley from Dayle, which should be stronger being that it's billet and not cast. Can't put it on though. There's no point until i can get a new key thingy.

I was so excited, too. I picked up the pulley, some belts, some break pads, and a tranny cooler from FedEx and went to install it all, but it seems if I were to drive any longer theres a chance the key would have completely eroded away and I might have crashed into something due to the PS becoming unavailable.
Man, turning that thing without PS makes the XT6 without Cybrid seem lightweight.

Highlight of the day was the Stang Big D pulled up in. 90% restored drop top.


The engine.

Waving bye to the vehicles.

I have a short clip of the Stang idling, and one of Danny riding on that ludicrously small 26cc (3bhp) motorized bike on the wall.
