remember, it`s not staying under $500, it`s not getting caught going over.

Didn't pay enough! They did a great job on the gallery, though. Good stuff.

Hey, they're welcome to tune our car up for us to ensure that we're not cheating if they really want to!

Did you ever get a residual value from Jay?

Yep $175.. hes willing to work with us since it has rod knock and #4 cyl has low compression. Time for another engine.
I happen to have a spare..

That really isn't bad. The cool thing is that with that $175 documented, they can't harass us about anything that was previously done to the car.

After reading the story of the Corporate Machine Caddy, I want to build one of those. Any car can be made to handle... and with brakes being considered "safety", we can make the car stop. It would be a hoot to show up with an underdog like that and whoop up on some people!

I bet you can find one for $100. Put it on a diet. Go through the cooling system. Put a mondo transmission cooler on it (or... find out what GM FWD 5-speed will fit the car...). Fix the suspension. Fix the brakes. Hell, yeah!
