Well, I was able to talk to him so we'll see if any of this can work out.

I had totally forgot about this car.  I had the first response to Eric's post back in November.  I really want that car!  Anybody in the hauling business?  Where is Alexandria?  Isn't that close to DC?  It's got all the cool options I like; leather, vent windows, console, and a color that you probably won't see anywhere else.  Aren't there any members in that neighborhood?  Seems like the majority of us are from IL, MO, OH, and you guys north of the border.  I know one like that will never crop up anywhere close to me.

Hey, on the V6 cars without AOD, do the rear ends tend to be high-geared, like 2.73's?  My '84 V6 AOD has a 3.27, and my '83 V6 AOD has a 3.08, which if I keep, is getting a 3.55 TC posi disc brake rear axle. 

Somebody get that car, and then take a drive to east central IL for me.  I'd put one of my AOD's in it.

Don't let it croak!

Yes, Alexandria is very close to DC. It's about 30 minutes away from where my family is in Maryland (also a suburb of DC). As luck would have it (or my luck anyways), I'm stuck in Philly right now so I'm pretty much useless in trying to save this car. Hopefully Karl (Cougars 2 Go) can work something out with the seller and get this car in the community.

Yeah, I talked to him yesterday and he is going to get with the current owner of the car about transport and things of that nature and get back with me some time this week to figure out the details of getting it to my house.

I've recently been contacted by Chris (the seller). Unfortunately, the car has been slated for the crusher. He says $200 will buy this car. Someone please save her!  :D

All the compliments at Cat Jam were very much appreciated. I'm glad I was able to give this car a chance.

Wow Carl, that car looks awesome. I think you should sell it to me one day.


It's my widdle special orphan adopted kitty. I've grown attached to it now. I have to protect it from the big 'ol world of car hackers.

I know. I saw the pictures. :hick:
seriously though. If you ever decide you want to let it go in the future, I'd be interested, and no, I would not change a thing on it.
