No, I intend to fix the rust on it and throw a ka or something in it to keep as a track car. Just something to beat the crap out of and have some fun with. Im getting another 240 with a decent chassis to add power to for me on the street. If I did not make this clear im sorry. But that is my intentions for this project. Thus why im parting it out. I have no room for all the parts and its going to take me a while to fix everything so im just going to sell it all till im ready for it to be on the car, understand better now? Here, rusty car = beat the shit out of track car. Good car = road usage. I came to this conclusion a couple days ago after a long meeting with all the mechanics and welders who are my aid on this pile of rust.

yea yea andrew i know. im not giving up on her im still guna fix her but i need a car to be driving for this summer so i dont have time to be fixing and driving this one. so here goes i need another one,

yes greg i guess this will just be practice.

cal-soy you want power for the street for well do i have to go there? and the track car i will try to break ill drive it so hard. i cant afford breaking or blowing anything expensive up so ill blow something up cheap, besides u cant tell me that non of u have never just wanted to kick the shit out of ur car on the track but couldn’t on fear of busting something cuz god knows it happens. And I cant afford replacing pricey parts every weekend… if you can more power to you. But I need to drive this car around to. If it busts at the track im walking home

aparently you couldnt handle all 115 hp of yours when you hit that woman on a offramp?

perhaps you should downgrade to a hyundai pony to keep it safe…

Oof. Cheapshot.

That was harsh. Not to completely agree with your statement, but doesnt that just make what i’m saying that much more valid?

-110hp (XD)  
-it was a curve not an offramp
