Why must I be tempted? April 01, 2009, 08:39:26 AM I've missed the '80 XR-7 since I sold it to a buddy of mine.Visions of a dream unfulfilled and all that lot. Now the past week, an 80-82 Tbird has appeared in the neighborhood here by work. A little rough around the edges, but I'm certain if I were to walk up with cash, it would be mine.It's black with what looks to be a red interior (which would match the red vinyl 1/2 roof).Must...resist...do..not...need...4th...car....I miss my Box Fox :( Quote Selected

Why must I be tempted? Reply #2 – April 01, 2009, 08:45:37 AM Well it's me....and well, me....If I had better storage (as in on my property and free) I'd pick up another car, but as it is I don't have the room. I'm not wanting to pay for storage any more. That's money better spent elsewhere. Quote Selected
Why must I be tempted? Reply #3 – April 01, 2009, 08:55:39 AM Yea, storage would limit me to. I also miss by 78 boxy Monarch.But I would never be able to find one of those ever again. I always search but they're never there.... Quote Selected
