The neighbor

I'm sure it's a bit rare to have a neighbor down the street who is car junkie.  You know the one with garage full of parts.  During the weekends hearing the sound tools dropping and impact wrenches tightening and loosening bolts.  But what are the odds that the next door neighbor, besides being a maniacal  gear head, also has the same car as you.  So instead of the usual knocking on the door asking for a cup of sugar.  The neighborly thing to do is ask for a spare 4AGE cylinder head and some pancit.  But one thing we never shared was tires.

But now the neighbor has moved on to the north, creating mayhem in the city by the bay.  Damn now I have to buy brake cleaner.
