King Princess: “Don’t just make me out to be a queer singer”

CP all day every day. Squeak out another $3k and get this:

If you want a Jeep, buy a Jeep. Don’t try to make an off-roader out of this over-tired (see what I did there) old Synchro.  The tow hooks on the front are a good idea.  The new owner is going to need them.  CP

I’ve had 8 in my garage in Maine if you count the almost complete Spitfire in boxes upstairs. Actually, there is most of a Saab C900 up there too, so 8.5. :-) With two lifts. Currently just three working cars in residence though. But two of them are British, and one German, so that probably counts for like 11.

When the original NSX came out, it was hailed as technically brilliant, if not a little dull, and then it sat in showrooms.

100%

Seriously. Carbs suck.

FOR SALE: ARMORED 2018 CADILLAC LIMOSINE

Well, not without a manual they aren’t. 

Competing with Corvettes? Nu-uh.

Luckily the new one will be available for years to come, in the free world.

Hahahahahaha...sorry, let me catch my breath. With a 12, nigh 13 year old Audi you are basically buying yourself the scary Victorian house at the end of the street that everyone marvels at but you know people get murdered and turned into wall art in there. I’m telling you from experience, do NOT go in there.

That technique just sort of skips the middleman where I put it into the engine before it leaks all over the place. Probably prevents rust too.

I will have to give it some thought.

Corventador.

So small you could crate it up and have it shipped freight.

Don’t these all have the Lucas electrics as well? IIRC there are entire firms dedicated to redoing the electrics on these cars because the degenerate so quickly and horribly (which autocorrected to hourly when I first wrote it and I think I probably should’ve left it).

A thousand times this. I have also replaced bushings cutting the outer sleeve, but man, that was a major PITA. I also bought an hydraulic press to replace the 200 or so busted bushings in my Civic, two lower control arms were enough suffering to me.

It’s so very difficult to call up the appropriate app on my tablet, connect to the Bluetooth dongle stuck in the ODB Port, and click the battery reset button. So hard... <shrug>
