That would be awesome,but,I doubt I could afford it.The Sport's budget always hovers around the 1/4 full mark.LOL.It would look good under the Sport's hood though.

Did ya end up going new?
Title: Need a coil cover....
Post by: vinnietbird on August 05, 2010, 06:57:39 AM
No,new ones seem over priced to me. I am a member of "ONYFTA". (pr0nounced ....Oh-Niff- Tuh).... Oklahoma/New York Free Trade Agreement. One came up there so I took what was offered to me. It's a contractual trade agreement that I've been involved with for quite some time now and it has proven to be very helpful to the Sport.

Again Hypostang,I do appreciate your time and effort in trying to help me out.

Vinnie, I went looking and found a good looking short cover for a turbo coupe, sorry it took so long, but I couldn't remember where I had put it.

Post by: vinnietbird on August 05, 2010, 06:52:58 PM
Nah,you're right.We've been swapping parts since we both got started on our cars.I can't imagine how many parts have been shipped back and forth.The Sport has really benefited from our agreement,and I hope Jerry feels the same way.I haven't kept track of what we've traded,but it's a lot of stuff.

I kinda gathered that lurking around here.  I think it great that there is that kind of help that goes on here .
Title: Need a coil cover....
Post by: vinnietbird on August 05, 2010, 07:07:54 PM
It has to be a give and take.You have to be willing to pass along some parts as well.I try to sell parts here to fund thing for the Sport that I need to do.I also have given away a lot of parts as well because I was able to,and it helped a fellow member out,and there are those that have done the same for me.Without this forum,a lot of us would be hurting looking for certain pieces,and tech.Not to be prejudiced,but this forum is probably better than any other you'll ever find for help of any kind,and support of any kind.You have to be willing to help when you can,and there are times you get nothing for yourself.That's O.K.,it always comes back to you when you're in need.

Yep, lots of stuff. went to the middle of nowhere (and turn left)
header panels, most of an interior. misc little stuff that gets fried in the Oklahoma sun survives here like it's new. and most stuff that rusts off a car here lasts forever in Oklahoma. Crazy
Title: Need a coil cover....
Post by: daminc on August 05, 2010, 07:13:48 PM
I also give away most of my extra part to people who need them
Title: Need a coil cover....
Post by: hypostang on August 05, 2010, 07:16:39 PM
I agree 100% . I am very impressed with the people on this forum.
I have noticed that even when people disagree here they don't do it in a condescending or arrogant way like on some forums.
 
 I for one am happy to help out when I can , parts and advice
