... work.

Kj rich, good luck with the dr and job apps... its definately a difficult job market out there.

Hey space. I should be able to do the firat wheel and have it finished tonight. Unfortunatly, the paint calls for humidity less than 70% and temp between 60* and 95*
im just trying to get them done before a car show in april and knowing my luck, ill need all the time possible.
I used to paint everything in my apartment (climate control) but now... my g/f lives there and she doesn't appreciate it.

Morning all.

Heading out to my house to finish gluing on shut off valves so I can turn the water on and hook up the toilet. Still can't hook up the sinks as I am waiting for the counter top tile to arrive. Hoping by the end of the week so week can tile this weekend and install the sinks. Then just installing the water heater, carpet and appliances and it will be time to start moving in.

Hey Space, I am talking to a guy about a possible trade for a Del Sol. I will keep you posted.

WoW Teacher, I think that's a super asking price & low miles 4 that year/model...With the price of gas, that would be a wise choice 4-Sure...I'd love 2 have another one, but I don't think I'd mod like I did mine : ) I think it would be less expensive to repair also (Compared to a SuperCharged Pontiac with higer miles: )...

They are fun rides & I like the removable Top : ) They are not Racer's, but they ride & handle pretty decent & get decent MPG's if you don't keep you foot 2 the floor, but even then it's better MPG's then you are getting with your other rides..
Keep us updated & I hope it's a good one...Make sure you give it a great long test drive & enjoy...Keep us updated `OK..

You sure have a lot going on in your life, and I hope everything goes well and you can kick back & relax soon, and hopefuly hop in your del sol & cruz : ) Peace/Happiness ~>`out

I love the Del Sols. I had a 1994 SI in metallic Green. It was a blast to drive.

I did get an offer of a 1987 SAAB 9000 Turbo, heated leather, climate control, and 155,000 miles. He wanted my AR-15 rifle and 500.00. I have 1400 in the rifle so it would essentially cost me 1900 for a car he has listed at 2999.00.

Here is the SAAB, I don't know anything about SAABs.

Take a look at this rare little local trade-in. This Saab 9000 turbo is in great shape for the age and runs and drives great. All the common issues have already been addressed on this car like the headliner and digital climate control. This one even has heated seats.
