Ok, my earlier post I asked some info on shipping companys. Well I decided to do the fly in drive home route. I did this in exact drive (Yorba Linda to Denver) last year in my current car, and I am hoping my luck has not run out. This car is a 2.7 conversion though, and all sounds great according to the seller. Heres a link to what I bought, and yes the stripe is soon to be history (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif)
http://adcache.collectorcartraderonline.co.../8/42957288.htm So, other than learning how to correctly check oil level on a six, what words of wisdom do J.P. and other 2.7 guys have for me? Car checked out good, recent rebuild ect. But if it were you what tools, should I go to FLAPS and buy before I leave the state? I do have AAA and a cell phone (two very important tools). The worst that happened last year in the 2.0 car was shift coupler bushings that turned to dust ON TOP OF VAIL PASS! I managed to find 3rd, cut up rubber hose found on the side of the road, and stuff it in the T and Duct tape it. Got me home. Thanks and wish me luck (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) And if anyone's close by on my way to vegas I would not be against swinging in to say hi |

If I remember correctly it is just morning dew. I don't remember what the asking price was, I do remember laughing about the "Factory Airconditioning" that was listed on the for sale sign. I can check to see if my buddy Chuck has any close ups of the car. He was taking alot of pictures that day. Let you know.
