iTrader: (0) ![]() | I say with the amount of work and time you have put into your ride, you should just store her away for a bit.... You may have lost some interest right now with it but you like many of us will come that day when you will say Dam i wish i never got rid of that car.... Yes true you could always get another one and go through all the mods again But you already know what your car needs and how it is from all the hrs you have put into it... Store it away John

iTrader: (0) ![]() | Shaun - Thanks for the reply regarding the trans. Unfortunately, that stall is way too lose for me, and I didnt realize you had that much $$$$ into it. I'm sure somebody will buy it for your asking price, but its definately more than I need. Good luck with whatever you do mang! I'd hate to see you get rid of the prix!

iTrader: (1) ![]() | IMO, I don't think its going to be as cheap to do up an LS1 as you think. I've priced it and know a few people. If your planning on making any major power power, you gotta deal w/ the rear end, tranny, + suspension first thing before touching the motor. You may want to do more research. Also, I don't think now is a good time to get an old F-body. There way over priced around here, I predict there prices to drop a bit when the new F-bodies come out...

| SE Level Member | I can understand your position. Everyone is looking at it from the outside. The actual experience of owning it is different. Its like having a really, really hot wife who is a pain to be around behind closed doors i.e., attitude, smells, bad personality, etc. My thought is get rid of the GP. You had your fun with the car. That is what it was for. Unlike a hot wife, the car won't care what you do with it and there is no honor required to keep it. If you DO want to honor it, let someone else enjoy it so it can stay happy. Demod it to a point where you see actual money coming back. You can get the T/A but pick the one you REALLY want or else you will be back in the same boat as before. |
