I've gone back to the chicken April 28, 2009, 07:02:45 PM I got a great deal on a camaro last summer, 500 bucks and I had to mow the guys yard a couple of timesthis is what it was when he said 500 bucksAnyway, I started driving it because It had a solid color of paint, and drives like a go cart. But being a wedding photographer, the amount of miles I travel in a day, I've come crawling back to the tbird. For being over 20 years old, Its functional, comfey, and the off-road appearance it has pushes bumps out of the way.I drove it today, 279k miles and still going, heads are ticking, front end is a wreck, and it has half the balls it used to have, ran it without oil once (was going to friends funeral, forgot to check it)So consider this a fair warning, you guys are about to help me bring this bubba back to life :hick: Im tired of watching it rot into the road.I'm going to try my best to dig up info without making a mess of duplicate threads, but I apologize in adavnce if i do!- Blain-O Quote Selected
