I think he got an order already. :-) We're gonna have to find the themesong to KnightRider to play on the PA when the car is at the line though... Mark |

Who bought it?
I was really going to take it, but I decided to spend more for a local car that has an engine in it that I built for myself. I wanted my engine back, and the 92Z hardtop is a nice wrapper. Glad you found a home for it Pat. |

A local guy bought it. He had always been a Neon/Honda/MR2 kind of a guy. A couple of years back, he co-drove my old LS1 F-Stock Camaro and I know that he has driven Sam S.'s ESP car as well. V8, rwd can be very addictive.
...I can still remember my old LS1 car going through (and I mean through) the course timing lights when he tried it. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/burnout.gif) |

Yep, that was me. Keith tried very hard to lure me to the "dark side" years ago with the FS co-drive (up until then, I had a decently prepped STS Civic SI [before they were cool (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) ] and a half-built EP CRX. I don't think I actually took the lights out that day with the Camaro, but I was pretty close. Apparently, the throttle in those cars isn't quite the on-off switch that it was in the STS car.
The "new to me" car will be an ESP ride, mostly for local events until I finish the "new" EP CRX. I've got several items on order with Sam already, so the incoming parts list is: T2R (backorder for 4 weeks..ugh), "Wonder bar" steering brace, Hawk pads at all corners, adjustable panhard bar, and Ground Control weightjackers/coilover kit. I've already spent more than the car was listed at with all of the old parts still on it. Even so, I still think the car was a pretty good deal, just based on the rebuilt L98 matched to a T5. Next up is wheels. I've searched the site some, but I'll add a post dedicated to that hunt. Oh yeah...the car wasn't aligned after pulling the previous spring/weightjacker combo off, so the car is a handful at about 45 mph or so on the seriously crowned roads in my area. It'll stay mostly parked until I can get the new springs back on and get an alignment. Anyone have a spare Knight Rider front light bar for sale?

If you're interested, Ricky, if the GC weight jackers you ordered are on back order, the F-Body shop near me (FBodyCentral.com) has a new weight jacker kit on the shelf for $250. Not sure what springs are with it -- the fronts are blue with no markings but look pretty stout and the rears have no markings but look almost exactly like the rear springs I got with my weight jacker kit. Again, everything is brand new and shiny and has never been on a car. I could get the measurements on the springs since I'm going back up there in the next day or two.
