Looking for a small and ridiculously cheap p.o.s.. It seems that our group of friends needs more seat time than our one autoX bomber can provide, so we are looking for a second car. It can be anything, really, as long as it's in the realm of running, driving, and stopping. It just needs to be small (we're gonna try to fit 2 cars on one trailer) and hopefully have a manual transmission. Thanks.

That's a killer deal but out of our price range. I'm sure most anyone on here would be glad to snatch that up

Yea, myself and at least 4 people I know have emailed the poster about that with no response. I have a feeling that a scrapper has already bought it and it's been crushed for meth money by now. Welcome to Florida.

I don't know why I didn't think of it sooner, it seriously just clicked.... I've got my challenger I would let go for about 1k 92 GTi 8v it has an A1 IT suspension under it, spare 020 trans, spare shocks, struts, springs. I want to say it's running 550lb springs in the front, 450 rears, ALMOST completely gutted, it still has a few things it could have chopped out. Lifters could probably use a rebuild/replacement as they rattle like hell when you come in from a high RPM run. Smokes like a frieght train when you first fire it up after it's been sitting for awhile, but clears up with a quick run through the gears. has a header on it, and a minivan presilencer and then dumps under the car. And it's located near Gainesville, I've got the title around here somewhere.

That sounds intersting. Let me talk to my cohorts about it this weekend. Any pics? Thanks.

Better hurry, LOL I caught myself perusing the classified section on the vortex tonight....I might of convinced myself to keep it and finish the build I wanted to do with it. If you guys are interested lemme know. I don't have any pictures of it in it's current state as I seem to be the photog of our group around here. No one picks up a camera when I'm out running it... :( I can snap a few here in the yard sometime this weekend.

Some pics of the previous owner, back when it was on lowering springs and kyb GR2's https://picasaweb.google.com/Spinout007/Challege09Friday link to the album.

My internet access is being a pain tonight. I'll edit this from work and post more of the pictures.
