New acquisition - just kidding



Wow!  The list sure is in a good and forgiving mood this week!  I was sure my little joke would start a full-on flame war.  Oh well.  



No, I'm not going to shred a perfectly good shell for the sake of laziness.  I'm actually, as one of you suggested, going to pull the good stuff from my red car and drive the silver one until either 1) the steering wheel is pulled away from my cold, dead hands, or 2) I mod it so much that I'm ready to start over with another one.  



I will have an extra, rebuilt transmission at the end of it all, because I am rebuilding one right now that will go in the silver car, then the red car's tranny will get rebuilt (synchros, gaskets, seals and bolt kit) and sold while the silver car's trans gets dropped into the red one and sold.  The silver car's trans is working very well.  So, whoever wanted a trans, keep in touch.
