Bucky92 Posted December 16, 2006 Author Share Posted December 16, 2006 Very well done Congrats to you Connie, and Andrew for his thoughtfulness. Happy Holly Daze indeed! Thanks Skip..Andrew gave me a deal as good as yours with Willy way back .Within the next week Rory will be picking this car up to repair the floor pans and put an exhaust on it. Then this spring I will hopefully be able to finish the restore and if money allows get it repainted and take him down to the Dragon this year. OK right now I am :banana: Thank you sooo much Andrew!

GeneralDisorder Posted December 16, 2006 Share Posted December 16, 2006 Looks like a fine specimen to me. It couldn't have found a better home I'm sure. More of these guys need to be saved - I see them fairly often at the yards sadly. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You always seem to pick juuust the right gift. ~Myles~ that's my two cents and it aint worth a dime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phizinza Posted December 17, 2006 Share Posted December 17, 2006 I would love to import one of them to Australia. Maybe I'll just have to build up a XT turbo with a H6. Looks great. AWD, mmmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucky92 Posted December 17, 2006 Author Share Posted December 17, 2006 looks like a keeper to me!! sure wish i could find cars that look that good around here. < is jealous. It has alot of rust on it..just all down low.You can actually see day-light through the floor. I plan on pulling it in the garage in a few and start cleaning,repairing,and compiling a list. The motor in this car is what I bought..20K mile Subaru factory motor...not a CCR import..so I have to make the car fit the motor....sweet.

Good luck with it. I think you guys both worked out a great deal,each getting a vehicle they truely desire.My luck ran out at DMV and now it'll take at least a few more days to get the turbo wagon reg'd.So it's good that the kid came through for you.And Rory in NJ deserves a heap of thanks too for throwing this car together for Andrew.Good history,good base,going to be a really good KEEPER!
