no, but im getting that car today and its better than yours

fcrotornut 01-15-2005 10:03 AM

i beg to differ on the better part, mine has low mielage compared to yours, has some mods, paint is in better condition, interior is better.



the only thing you have are 2 peices of molding i need, and all i gotta do is replace my thow out bearing.



other then my front bumper and chipping sunroof paint lol

fcrotornut 01-15-2005 10:08 AM

anyway, to get back on track, you could always take it to SRT https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...>/rolleyes.gif

actually i would have to say that my interior is better. and how many miles does yours have? yours does have some mods but you also paid $2200, and i will be paying 750 for a running car, on which EVERYTHING works. all elec., cruise, tranny, and engine. really what is the mileage on yours?

so far the car is much much easier to work on than the fc, theres more room in the bay too, so ill do most of the work.

fcrotornut 01-15-2005 10:14 AM

chris said the engine had around 30kish on it right?



i guess those seat covers worked and kept the itnerior mint?





your engien will probably still blow before mine does haha.

just remeber to baby it with that high mielage.







also, check your pm bud.

well who really knows how much of what chris said was true. how many does the car have bc mine has had work done by rp, and seeing as how everything on the car is stock, my best guess is that that would be a rebuild.

fcrotornut 01-15-2005 10:21 AM

lol, good point about chris, still, i think i got a good deal.

sweet! now tell me the miles

fcrotornut 01-15-2005 11:00 AM

well lets see, the engine is still under the 40 mark, im sure of that, the body has 203k miles on in, and obviously it was previously repainted.

you really cant be sure of anything bc you dont have the paperwork, my body has 217k and was also previously repainted.
