I'm gonna sell the musclecars ('93 GT, '94 Z28). I think I'm gonna get another Ranger. I need to focus on school for the next 2 years. Oh well. Money will come easier after I have the diploma.

My roommate (and close friend) is buying the Z28 back for every penny that I have in it. He sold it to me about 8 months ago. He had it for about 9 months before that. I might keep the '93 GT around, it's not running. I hate to sell it with just 41k miles. I've seldom Fox cars as clean. I've got a lot of parts for it that I might sell, 347 shortblock, Stage III (310cfm@.600) Highports, just sold the old trans setup, still everything but the turbo kit from the old turbo setup (6BTM, boost guage in the A-Pillar, Fuel Pressure on the cowl...). That car is safe because it will cost more money than I will have to spend on it to get it back on the road. Plus it sits in the shop at my parents' house.

Oh well, I'll still have keys to the Z28 and it's about to get a heads/cam package and a 12 bolt. It will be fun.... but it won't be MINE. And it's a 54k mile hardtop 6spd. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) I haven't been driving it lately, and I drove it for the first time after the last round of mods the other day.... it just wasn't quick enough to make me crack a smile on the street. I know that I would be throwing every spare dime at it, even when I should be cutting back on work and studying more. I'm know it has some 8.40s in it, hopefully with heads/cam and some launch we will get some 7.40s out of it. I'm going to go out and apolagize to the car for selling it to a pure drag racer here in a minute.

Oh well, after I graduate I'm going to find a job and start saving up for a pre-'03 Viper GTS... unles I can find a good deal on a nice '70 Cuda.... or maybe a Z06. Oh well, I'm back in dreamer mode.

I'm not looking forward to saying "I don't have a fast car, but my roommate does". (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/mellow.gif)
