Damn! Can I get a ride??? I've never personally saw one of those, but I know they're quite rare. My first (Legal) car was a '88 Daytona Turbo, so I have a soft spot for Turbo Dodges

In reply to dansxr2:

Assuming I make better progress by Sept, of course you can have a ride.

If not, my backup car is not too exciting, but you are welcome to a ride in it as well.

i went and looked at a '96 probe gt with a "timming problem" that "was fast before the timming went out". headers, test pipe, cat-back, CAI, a/c delete (LOL), PS delete (another LOL). kid told me the car had 120k, so I was surprised to see 180k on the odo. clutch pedal was about 2" above the floor. he's asking a grand, and i told him that it was worth about $400 to me, and i thought that was a pretty fair price given the generally hack nature of the car. i will hit him again in 2 weeks and if it's still there i'm confident he'll take the $400. at that point, i have a decent parts car for my 228k '96.

I will "hopefully" be bringing back the suby-powered 914 this year. That is, if I can get the engine fixed from the spun bearing last year.

I will be going through Houston on my way to FL. Its a long drive down I10.

You guys are going to have to wait until next year for the Tubo III Caravan. We've shelved it, and are bringing a 1st gen VW GTI.
