A transmission. Head gasket(s). Wheel bearings. MAF / knock sensors. And be prepared to learn it / work on it yourself, as many shops will refuse to touch it - and those who do won't have any idea what the gently caress, and will charge you a shitton to randomly throw parts at it. (I have two. Neither are currently in drivable condition, as I can't seem to find time to work on them.)

Yeah I just noticed the Fuchs this morning, definitely calling the guy up. I may just get some phonedials, sell the Fuchs and keep the car for a while like I planned.* Edit: God, I can't wait to find out just how badly hosed the rest of the car is. * - Or maybe not, I love me some Fuchs. I'd just sell them separately when I sold the car. Dave Inc. fucked around with this message at 17:05 on Aug 9, 2011 |

If they were 16", you could pay off the car and probably get a couple of 15" phone dials before you put any of your own cash in. Keep the Fuchs. You know you want to. Edit: They even make this look good

Astroman posted:Today I joined the IRL Cool Kids. Everything was automatic. I could sit in the red-leather driver's seat and make every inch of the car jump, by touching the proper buttons. It was a wonderful machine: Ten grand worth of gimmicks and big-priced Special Effects. The rear-windows leaped up with a touch, like frogs in a dynamite pond. The white canvas top ran up and down like a roller-coaster. The dashboard was full of esoteric lights & dials & meters that I would never understand — but there was no doubt in my mind I was in a superior machine.

Get rid of the wheels and the yellow stripe that goes all the way around the car and it will be a stock fox body. So all is not lost, especially if the stripe is just a vinyl sticker of some kind or electrical tape (lol).

*sigh* No money, yet I find this.  $300. I could get that in scrap if I wanted to get it shredded, or pull any of the good parts off of it and double my money. I realize that it'll require new...well, hell, everything, but I so love the look of those old trucks. http://easttexas.craigslist.org/cto/2502913204.html Edit: broke tables.
