Guess who bought a new toy... August 11, 2005, 03:24:35 PM Well, with the sport rusting from the inside out, I decided it was time to find another base to start from. Seeing as I'm gonna lose my sunroof, I guess I'll just have to make this one a little extra fast (I can deal with that compromise). And from the looks of it, I should have a fun drive home in it :D http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1,1&item=4567491747&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT Quote Selected

I think he made a limited run of 25 sets, awesome worksmanship/quality. :DLooks like a good buy Crystal. Gonna be a haul to get it home though...wait...looks like you moved.....so it's a bit closer.

Re: Guess who bought a new toy... Reply #8 – August 11, 2005, 11:34:08 PM Hey Chuck, bet you're glad to see your motor mounts staying in the circle, lol.This car's not gonna see roads for a bit once it's home. It's getting stripped over the winter and it will be done right. The t/c drivetrain probably won't go back in this car... my project bird will be a 5.0, but don't worry that 2.3 turbo will find a good home in a nice lightweight hotrod further down the line :D Quote Selected

That or another capri with the inline 6. I still miss that car too. Quote Selected
