On Oct-02-06 at 05:37:04 PDT, seller added the following information:
Small technicality...In the Terms of the Sale area at the bottom of the listing the word "truck" should be substituted for "car", also it should read "18 years old" not 35. I borrowed this from a previous listing and didnt change it.

Very Clean Car

Yes, it's a TC thing. It allows the engine to run a lower boost with regular fuel

It should have, lol

I put the prc susp. and 11'' brakes on my V6 car a week or so before the block self-ventilated, along with the TC swaybar up front, man, what a diff that made...gonna pull it all apart this winter tho, clean it all up, paint, some rust repair, and new bushings, CHE arms...etc.
 
The TC susp. is ed good compared to weak, worn out V6 stuff...when i first got the car, you could push down on the front, go in the house, make a ham sammich, and come back to see the bastid still bouncing...that didn't last long, let me tell ya.
Anyway, sorry to 'jack the thread, y'all can have it back now :beatyoass:

Holy poop shoot *drops a load on the floor*, that thing is like minutes away from me. Anyone got a few grand they want to part with to support my "Put me back in a bird" fund? Good grief that thing is in amazing shape.

Christ, you're only two years old than me, yet you own a plethora of cars. Amazing. Ah, I'll have the Bandit Firebird restored soon enough, and then I'll be the one laughing!
