Offer him $700 and walk if he raises an eyebrow. Find out WHO did the motor work, it might have made it worse.

And find out what brand parts are, all of them.

you bet! spent saturday in van going over the car.. replaced a few hoses and belts for the trip and she ran like a top. didnt lose a drop of fluid the whole way back. lots of traction with adam's 6 studded tires on rims and a spare set of gt rims stuffed in the back. hit some bad weather coming through the mountains which just made for some fun driving. i have every confidence in the car for tbird. gotta get some new seats in there tho, may have contracted scholiosis from the ride back. stopped a few times for pee/drifting breaks in the heli-ski pickup points. put on a good show for the ski bums. (drifting not peeing). still hunting for a tranny, theres a big camaro/firebird wrecker in edmonton that scoops up stuff pretty quick. found a 240 turbo for a motor swap tho. gonna scoop it up on my days off and tuck it away for after trail of the gnu. made contact with hitempguy regarding a cage for april, seems theres only one guy in alberta to be trusted with such duties. will be ordering some springs in march, with some turrets as well. gonna get these in first so the cage can be integrated..
