:cry: Well it is with mixed emotions that I write this. Now that I have the brakes sorted out and have it running well, my car is sold! I took it for a spin the other night and I think it was because of the colder weather, but I even scared MYSELF!!! It got to 90-100 (not that I would ever do something like that, but it felt like it could!) like that (snapping fingers)!
I just received a cashier's check from the buyer. He will pick it up tonight or tomorrow. The good thing is that it is staying locally. I met him through good friends of ours and I think I will remain involved with the car. He is talking about changing the clutch out, so you hear that RL, there may be an engine drop in Charlottesville within the year! I'll have to let him know about this board and what a great group of guys is not that far away. Anyway, I have enjoyed meeting and hanging out with many of you. I may ride up there and see if I can ride shotgun with somebody, on occasion, for some of your infamous fun runs. That is, at least until there is another one to take it's place!
I have some parts left that are not going with the car, so I may list them in the parts section. I know there are a couple of turbos up there so if anyone is interested in a set of Euro headers, crossover pipe, and J pipe, let me know. $300 takes them including new gaskets (for headers), new hoses, and new hardware. I didn't get the chance/ba**s to put them on! I could bring them up to one of the upcoming engine parties. I'm sure there won't be a lack of those! That is, if I'll be allowed driving something other than a p-car! I'll still be lurking! :wink:
