The yellow one is a parts car - I got it with the gold one that will be my ride.
Jim clutch slips - first gear grinds - minimal rust - no a/c : (IMG:http://users.erols.com/jamesgkelly/01.jpg) (IMG:http://users.erols.com/jamesgkelly/02.jpg) |

I drove 4 hours round trip today to look at these cars. The yellow one has lost of rust but has 914-6 or 911 rims and suspension pieces. Maybe a better tranny but I really don't know. I will have the cars home in a few days. I'd like to get the gold one sand blasted, repainted and undercoated, new clutch put in too. The yellow one I will part out I suppose to offset the overall purchase. Guess I need to but some tools and learn which end of each is the business end : ) I'd love to put a v8 in it in the future for a bit more power and reliability but I want it to always look stock, skinny-ish rims and tires and all. Thanks - I will keep you posted and will be asking lots of questions - like who is local to me in Northern VA?
