I can second that. As E-man said, it's purely fate that he found that car in that condition.

I'll be there June 1-3. Towing the convertible with my Mountaineer, and driving the '84. It's going to be an adventure, I'm sure LOL. I hate the fact that the convertible, for the first time ever, will become a trailer queen for a car show. But my buddies are driving the truck, and this way we just drop the cars off at the fairgrounds and leave them all weekend, while we tote back and forth to the hotel in the truck. This is a special year...even though it's expensive, it's worth it. Plus, I can only run premium unleaded in the convertible. Either way I'm going to get gouged at the gas pump. I want to "blow some carbon" out of the '84 so what better way than a 500-mile trip?

Amazing find E man. That has to be my new favorite color, next to mine of course. Jesus it's in good condition too.

Your so punny. :hick:

Happy anniversary Eric. As much time and effort you have put yourself through with these cars, I would say you've earned it.

Sorry about having to be a little cryptic around ya, Mikey...Brian saw the car last fall and knew all about it, but he had to keep things quiet around you. It was killing him LOL.

And before you ask....NO, I don't have any '84 parts for you.

Oh... you have '84 parts. But they're not for anyone else. I know you d parts, sir.

That's why I said, "for YOU."

Yeah, if you guys have been losing eBay auctions for NOS 1983-84 parts...that's me. Sorry about that! I'm pretty ruthless when I want something though. :D

. Now I want to go out and buy an immactulate '91 Subaru Justy ECVT................... wait, no I don't.

Awesome Eric. It's painful to know you got that for $500 and think about what I spent for mine, but I'm happy for you and your reunion.
