just a bounce...and a bump (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon_bump.gif)

Guess there is no interest in it. Well..I will probably put on Craigslist, Samba, and Ebay, then if no sale, it wasn't meant to be.

Don't do it man! Just keep it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) . Actually I'd like to do a different engine conversion. A suby would be sweet but I am dying to do a TDI diesel. SO who knows I may sell my Buick 215 conversion at some point. Of course I need to fix the suspension ear first (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) . Then get everything put back in & running again.

Good luck with the Sale dude. Hope someone jumps on it soon (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif)

Not much of a 914 community here in Houston. Tough place to sell...Texas in general. Too hot to drive these things without A/C!

Sent ya a PM.
