Ferg
Pretty excited.

Wife was a little less excited, but just rolled her eyes. Man I love that woman wub.gif

74 2.0 "J" class Fuel Injected, Kerry headers. ect...

at this point i'm not sure what i'm going to do with it, as racing is out of the question (2 year old boy, and newborn come january) but it is street legal, and from the looks of it, I may even park it next to another car w00t.gif
Everyone can now start the betting on how long I keep it... rolleyes.gif

Cool. Park them together a little low music, some candles a couple of cans of

vintage oil from Napa valley....or is that Napa auto parts?
SLITS
They shoulda left it green ... it woulda been faster.

Oooooo, quick, I think I see a spot of oil or dust on the hood. You'd better sawzall it .... your other car might catch the "dirty disease" iffin' ya park it to close to it.


Oh, and Nanu Nanu O' Anal One ...... Shazbot!

Ferg,
i am not even sure why you bother posting about it. by the time this thread reaches the second page, it will be gone.
Now........if you change the thread to read "I bought a new trailer", that's a different story............

Vegas won't even give odds on how quickly you will trade cars anymore. I now have to bet $100 just to try and make $5
Ferg
It will be fully detailed before it enters the shrine, oh I mean garage...

Get Out !!!


Ferg bought a car !


Hey Ferg, didn't you already have a car ?

Oh, I get it. It was a mercy buying; taking it off the market so Trojanman wouldn't be able to buy it. I can respect that.

Mmmmmmmmmmm race car.....

Nice looking "racecar"
I would definitely get that oil cooler straightened out...having your oil fitting facing down towards the street/track is not very good for a long term solution. Hit a curbing at high speed and off goes the fitting and your oil confused24.gif I had an RSR air dam like that on my 914-6 RS motored car and my oil cooler was up front but the fittings were up top....

Otherwise, keep it as a dual purpose car....An AX occassionally wouldn't hurt now would it...?

Nice find.

I agree with Greg, you probably already have a buyer lined up and you are posting about the car to make them sweat.

#2
Maybe if you sell the orange car, your wife would let you use the money for a racing budget! That should get you through two years I'm sure. Just think of it, you could be the next Jeff Gorden! But you'll never know unless you give it a try and follow your dream... go man go. Oh, would you prefer paypal, a cashiers check or a 912E?

Specs:

Stock 74 2.0, Kerry hunter headers, supertrap exhaust, MSD, lightened flywheel, MSD, Bilsteins, Bolt in Bar... has been a DE and autox car, so the term "race car" is used loosely.

If I keep it, I will have to bring that green back aktion035.gif

So, if it is anything less than spotless it is considered a "racecar" in Ferg's book. Oh wait, never mind, he said it has a Supertrap. It must be a racecar. poke.gif biggrin.gif


I can already hear it at the next event.....

Joe Sixpack - Ferg, I can't believe this isn't a 95+ point car and that you own it!!
Ferg - Oh yeah....well uhhhh...its uhhhh....ITS' A RACECAR!!! Yeah, that's it!


Niec purchase, BTW. thumb3d.gif

Nice Ferg!

Now... You have no excuse about not going to at least one or two autox or DE events next year...

And if you decide to replace that front air dam (I see some cracks on it, no doubt that's intollerable for you... biggrin.gif ), I have one (same design) that I won't be using, never mounted...

I bought it completely blind, based on the pics. Runs ok, but needs a top end. So I will be pulling the heads this winter.
