I bought it like that for $1400...with a torsen, and the white hardtop is my spare, lol. The green car is still mint but needs paint for the new HT and the FM hood.

This is parked in the garage since early june, and until I get my turbo back:

new oil cooler mount

streets flowing with the blood of non-believers / my turbo stops falling off

That shit is slow and you need some 15" NB 5 spokes for that thing.

that shitbox is so fucked-up. The motor is hurt enough that when you stomp on the gas, it just gets loud, it doesn't go anywhere. I'm holding out for a cheap 99 motor. 70% leak in #3...lol.

I have 2 sets of those wheels in the garage, but I need to put one bronze and one nickel 6ul on it and send the pics to emilio for his site. Actually, I bet you could put the nickel wheels on it and it would look "good" by some standard.

I might have another 99 coming today. We just got an 03 in if your interested in that motor.

I'll take that 03 bottom for the right price, then hold out for a cheap 99 head. I need something in the garage though for when this car dies...which won't be long. Maybe a trade for my old begi manifold and dp?

levnubhin 07-31-2009 12:24 PM

Your begi mani wont do me any good. Once I know the mileage on the 03 I'll pm you a price. I should know in about a 1/2 about the other 99.
