my 96 2wd reg cab 4cyl 5 speed stepside stranger....im either looking to replace it because im sick if the repulsive NA 2.3 but ive also been looking into either a 5.0 or 2.3 turbo conversion for it. that would make it a project though....not the best thing to do with the daily driver ya depend on....

Currently my 88 Bird is my daily driver (I've put 40,000 km on it in 30 months!!!) but I have a winter vehicle as well - 1988 Dakota 4X4. Currently it's at the cottage awaiting a custom wooden box (the old one rotted off and it ain't worth getting a good steel box for). Hopefully the box will be on it before the snow flies...

I hope to be buying a Volvo 850 or V70 turbo wagon before the end of the new year as well, provided I can find one and funding falls into place

Pic says it all. I will lower my head in shame and look the other way. Yes those are T-Bird Trx's on the back.

Repairing a lock cylinder that is frozen or sans keys requires a drill, gumption, and a midget on a tricycle.

Don't feel too shameful, man... :D  Our cars are twins! And mine has 10-holes on it.

I'm driving this slow turd because it was $650 and my old mustang bit the dust. This pic is actually from right before I started driving it last year, this side of the car is all scratched up now from where I ran into a hedge last winter :bricks1:.

I can't complain too much though, this car regularly averages 29-30 mpg.

'04 Monaro ;) (don't hate me). WOW what fun. Not quite as brutal with acceleration as my 5.8L 5 speed 88 XR7 was, but still does the job nonetheless. Interior is comfy as hell, clutch is easy to modulate, handles like it's on rails and it has that classic hot rod rumble on the outside (fairly quiet from the inside) 10,000 miles on that clock and a killer deal at that . .  .

Best part is it gets 26 mpg on the hi-way and averages 21 mixed/slightly heavy footed.

a 3.0 vulcan V6 and SHO stick tranny is a relitivally easy swap into that car (tempo/topaz)....and would be alot of fun....

If i were to buy a new car, that would probably be it.

I drive my TC daily.
It's Gumby's fault.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
