I have in my possesion, sitting collecting dust, a 100% compleate, but not running 1988 convertible. Any suggestions as to what I should do with it? Part it out, get it running and sell it? Keep it for parts? Sell it as is? I dont know if getting it running is worth the effort or dollars? Anyone have a spare n/a engine they want to sell? At least it is all compleate, even rims/4 center caps and new tires, etc.....

Give it to me so I can begin my next Jspec transplant https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

You can park it at my house, I won't care.

If you part it out, let me know. I can think of many things that I'd want off of it. :thumbsup:

I may know of some people interested in it.

I see it as the effort I would put into it would be better spent doing something else for the couple of dollars I would make off the car. Then I thought of building another engine for my car, and putting the engine from my car in the one thats not running. I still need to call you and possibly get together one day Jim, we probably arent even 10 minutes from each other. I would love to see how much faster your car is then mine, and see if its worth the effort. I just wish I didnt take the insurance off my car for the winter, im so bored driving my daily car its not even funny.

Rob, I'm probably less than 10 minutes from you. I'm in Massapequa, right off of Merrick Rd. I'm free on Thursday and Friday if you want to stop by or meet up. You should notice a little bit of a difference with my car. :sigh:

Well, tomoroww is supposed to be shitty out I believe. We can play it by ear, otherwise maybe Friday, this Saturday is my bday so I cant Saturday. I get out of work about 4:00, and its been staying light out till about 5:30. I just wont be able to bring my RX though, Ill be putting the insurance from my Cherokee to the RX probably about April or so, just couldnt swing paying for 3 to be insured anymore, and with my girlfriends car, 4 is too many to have around the house.

Friday should be fine for me. Just give me a call on Friday if you're coming.



I was going to take my car off of the road for the winter, but my gamble paid off. :sigh:
