There's an 86 headed to Texas soon!
 

Just a teaser!

I am getting this car next week and should be home here in Houston Texas by 5-11-07...

Brian and Mike SHHHHHH! You know and no one else does yet...

Matt

Your secret is safe with me. :)

Glad you bought it.

NOW what is your HOME number again MATT? :D

Tom

I will never tell, unless somebody pays me twenty bucks.

I glad you bought it also.:2thumbs:

Tom, the SSP count is up to 3 again with the addition of this car. The other non-SSP will be getting sold soon enough. so that I can assure the "BOSS" that we have room in the garage and storage for these.

I need to sell the other car so I can get a transmission or 2. I have enough parts to put together an engine for the 87 DPS in storage but no transmission. Not that it needs it right now.

Matt

Glad to see it staying in the group, Matt. That is the only 4-eyed Nebraska that I know of.

It needs work but it will be a work in progress... I will be driving it daily until the CHP car is complete. I am going to get some parts together on this. I have a lead on a lightbar and possible equipment for the car. But first thing is first. I need to get the deal completed and the car HERE!

There is some rust that needs to be taken care of and some paint work... I also have to trak down a passenger sider door panel in blue. It's got a tear.

2403 miles later, $600.00 in gas and food the car is home now in Katy Texas... I borrowed Roman's trailer to go pick the car up and then trailered it back to Roamn's house last night. I drove the car from Lufkin to Katy 140 miles and it did just fine despite the miss. Pictures to come later today!

Matt

Here are some pictures from today... The car is minus a catback but I have a OEM 180K mile take off from an 88 LX hatchback. I need to replace the mufflers but I will have that done and use some 2001 stainless ones. The car had a bad miss on the drive home and a HUGE stink! I think at some point a dog was kept in there!

The passenger side sun visor looks like it was chewed off kind of like the movie Turner and Hooch. I kind of wonder if that is what happened to the rear upper seat too. The car is really clean under all the dirt and the bits of surface rust here and there. The front is tweeked a bit and will just take some time before I get to that.

I replaced the spark plug ires at Roman's house hen I dropped off his trailer and the miss was still there. I changed the spark plugs today and NO MORE MISS one was really badly gunked up.

I can't wait to get the tweek fixed and put a paint job on it.
