Cool car. One of these days I will get something fast. Until then, it's rocks and dirt for me.

I already have one staircase going up, but not enough $$ to have another going down, or one more just for show... But I do have my wife with a proper double... Oi

well, with the two blades that sold today, the blades that sold last week, and what already has bidders on 'that sight'... my car money is found... Yay! no auto debt needed.

What a week!

I am not thinking of the missing blades... yet, but I know I will every now and again... but the sheer awesomeness of the favorite few that I am clutching to now, and the thrill of the MR2 should suffice
now lets see what will be on for the Ganzaa this Wed...

I had a buddy with a CJ7 with an LT1 in it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

I was a big fan of the Fiero - which is long gone - so I live vicariously through being a fan of the MR2 - although I don't have one (but I have a Fiero! On my THIRD one!)

Stabbyjoe,... funny you mention the LT1 in the CJ7.. I am working on a similar project now.. LS4 (ls1 but in 5.3ltr)...

Fiero- great for the day... but things have come a long way... Diceman, if you ever get out to Las Vegas,.. drop me a PM before hand and maybe I could break the Fiero streak, and get you into Spyderdom.

Coldone... lets see.. has chips in windshield and bumper scratches front/back, and a dented 1/4 panel... but I will likely leave that for last.. first things first... Check engine light... bad O2 sensors... plus lots of bad bushings (i can hear tie rod banging into swaybar)... the entire exhaust may need attention, plus the trunk release(engine hood) is busted... next adjust the shifter.
Plus I plan on really building up the suspension and adding massive bracing in the next 30 days... Basically, fix, then modify suspension/chassis, lastly maybe load some touch up paint into my airbrush and try to fill the scratches.. try to push out the 1/4 panel... and bring her to tip top shape... and now that is has cooled off out here, it will be easy for me to work on her...

In the future... build the engine and forced induction is likely...

If I'm ever in Vegas, I'll let you know! I've never driven an MR2, but I love them "in theory." I'd really like to get some hands on in one!!
