Hey, do you still have the stock seats that were "extra" with that car???

If so, I'll take the passenger side one if it's in good shape.

Please email me pics if you have the seat still.

Hey Ken, yep, I've got both seats and both are in excellent condition (no rips or tears of any kind, black leather power adjust).

I'll take pics tonight and send them to ya.

Not sure if you have heard of/plan on coming to //S fest but I live about 10 minutes away from the festivities so if you want em you could easily get them this weekend.

Thanks!

//S-fest is Saturday in Granby, CT. If it was anything like last year it will be a LOT of fun. a bunch of people camp over on Friday/Sunday night, doesn't make much sense for me since I live 10 minutes away but lots of fun to be had.

Thanks for the info... bummer, I'll be in VT on Saturday, but I can stop by on Friday evening if that works. The evite said the thing starts at ~6pm.... If I get there around 7 or so, would you be there??

I'll be heading up through hartford, so its not that far out of the way.

Hmm, I'm going to be busy on Friday night but if I know when you are planning on being in the area I can make sure I'm home if you wanna pick up the CQ seat. There will be a few people there on Friday but the majority of folks will be showing up on Saturday.

Lemme know

Indeed!

I can't friggin wait to start tearing into this thing. I'm already thinking about what work projects I can put off 8-)

Since the power assist is gone on the brakes and summer rubber is mounted on all 4's, I decided to let AAA do the car movin :-P (good suggestion Myke!)

Myke's brother Dennis clearing the driveway. That little 3-wheeler is pretty cool!

Race ya into the garage, first one in gets the lift!

Get ready to say 'buh bye' to 160hp 7A, and helooooooo to 300hp (and 300 ft/lbs @3300rpm) of 4.2L v8 goodness 8-)

Ok Mark its been like three months since I bought the headlights from you and this is the first time I have been able to really get back on this site since then. But I was hoping to see a little more progress. Not to be a naysayer because I really do have faith I expected to see more progress. Granted my coupe is no farther along than it was when we last talked, I have the excuse of not seeing my car for the last three months because I am still down in New Orleans and may be stuck here for christmas ( I think my moving 13 times in 3 months beats your 1 time I mean gosh thats a terrible excuse :-D ) anyway the point is get it done already I really want to see how it turns out. Lots of pics of motor mounts etc.
Good Luck
AJ
BTW New Orleans is a Craphole.

AJ, good to hear from ya!

No excuses really, I've got most of the pieces that I need, just need to start turning wrenches

Hey Myke, whats going on at the shop this weekend?

Toxcheap · Post by **Toxcheap** » Thu Dec 08, 2005 6:22 pm

I don't know what?

Post by **Marc** » Thu Dec 08, 2005 7:05 pm

I'll prolly try to spend Saturday pulling the motor, just checking to see if you'd be around.

Toxcheap · Post by **Toxcheap** » Fri Dec 09, 2005 5:55 pm

Yup Yup I'll be there on Saturday maybe be working on the 90T!! Got the kids on Sunday oh and I told Den to have keys ready for you on saturday too!!

Post by **Marc** » Fri Dec 09, 2005 6:10 pm

Shweet, I'll be there around 9:30ish. Lots of 'car'nage scheduled for tomorrow, with you pulling the tranny outta the 90 and me yoinking the 7a. We'll see if I can finish a complete motor pull in one day.
