Well, you know you have a great wife when, you already have seven cars (not to mention multiple rotory motors) and you decide to come home with another car... because you can!



I love when people have no idea what they have. My most recent purchase (this weekend) was a $100 GSLSE... that has been sitting for seven+ years. The previous owners only new that it "was fast!". They parked it when the clutch slave cylinder started leaking (12$ rebuild kit and 15minutes of time to fix) and a blown fusable link stopped them from driving it. Since than it has sat! It is ugly.. but [b]relatively[u] straight. I was able to start the motor on brake cleaner!... the fuel pump is frozen (I will have a new one by this afternoon). But with gas (half bad gas/ half good gas) to the motor, the $100 purchase will be a running GSLSE... It even came with a glass moonroof (I will add it to the other 3 I have). I started preping it for paint.



The question is what to do with it... It is not like I need another 7. GSLSE's should be left stock and classic... but this one may get some of the bolt on toys that are lying around the garage.



I'll post some pics shortly! This pic is my other GSLSE (License Plate: Clarks7)



Boys and their toys!

If you really do want to sell, let me know. I'm waiting for the right SE to happen on by.

I thought it was great that after 7+ years I could start it using brake cleaner! I just got the new fuel pump last night, I hope to put it in today after work.



SE's run forever!!! That silver one in the top picture has over 250k miles on it! And it still drives and looks great!
