if its in as good a condition as you yell it is, i wouldnt buy it and rip parts out of it. if the body is shot then maybe other wise, you could paint it and sell it for a grand. by the way, where on earth do you live?

It is fortunate that I was not actually drinking my coffee at the time I read this.. I would have snorted it all over the monitor. :p

I do quite like the picture of the caps lock but i must agree with Manson if it only has rust in the places you have described i would not tear it apart. Infact im looking for a turbo / super coupe (Fox or Mn12) here in toledo.

there is one at the junkyark with a thrashed interior but engine and such is all functional. It was for alittle over $550. Man I wish I would have seen that after the v-6. The worst thing is, After that we pulled two cars into the back yard and now I have room for another one.... First time since I can remember that we actually drove all the cars out of our driveway under there own power. I also learned my first cat has virtally no brakeing power on gravel and weeds can be easy to tear out with a tire when your car get stuck.

5-speed swap would do you NO good because those 4-banger trannies don't last long behind a V8. And the rear end is just another 7.5, the only advantage is the 3.45 gears and traction lok.

I can't count the number of times caps lock has been pointed out to him... It went from sublte hints to blatent descriptions. A lost cause in that department. Ignore is always an option.

If the caps lock is the worst thing he does he OK in my book. He seems to be a nice guy who's not hostile(tbirdera) or wasting peoples time on purpose(I'm __ __ Hell).
