cmiller Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 Went to the U-Pull-it and those wheels are a different pattern than what you have on your EA-81 convertible. Sorry, I thought I could get you that 5th wheel you needed. I'll keep an eye out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share Posted August 31, 2009 Went to the U-Pull-it and those wheels are a different pattern than what you have on your EA-81 convertible. Sorry, I thought I could get you that 5th wheel you needed. I'll keep an eye out. Thanks for looking Chris. If anyone has even one of these wheels, I would be grateful if you would sell it to me :-p I do have some better pics (from the Show), but I'm to tired to DL them right now. I thought I was going to relax and all when I got home, but instead Russ and I went and pulled the engine/dash harness out of a EA81. And yes, one of the reasons I bought it was because it was black But its so nice, I might have got it no matter what color it was. Oh, it also won Peoples Choice at WCSS11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Abides Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 How does it drive, i would think the convertable setup would make it way heavier then a normal coupe. EJ AWD all the way baby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share Posted August 31, 2009 How does it drive, i would think the convertable setup would make it way heavier then a normal coupe. EJ AWD all the way baby. It handles ok, altho it is heavier and therefor even slower than the typical EA81. It got about 27mpg on the trip and ran perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dude Abides Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Thats why i say, EJ all the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turbone Posted August 31, 2009 Author Share Posted August 31, 2009 Thats why i say, EJ all the way. It will lose all value if I EJ it. It needs to remain stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigAl Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 I actually didn't know the convertible existed until about a year ago when I saw an all original yellow one for sale on CL locally. I was sooo tempted to buy it, super low original miles, but the budget just didn't allow. Very cool find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
