Default Picking up a parts car...

Well this week a friend and I are going to be picking up a parts car, a 95 formula six speed, Its going to be getting parted out, I'll post parts after we get the car....but for sure the tranny plus everything you need to convert an auto is going to be for sale, it has the 5 star 16s that are going to be for sale, as well as some other stuff. But I'm going to be keeping the rear end for myself, hopefully it has the 10 speaker system, my car has the worst system they put in the cars....4 speakers. Hoping that the pass side window motor is good, and the heads and intake are going to be getting a sweet port job at HPS cylinder heads in Tarpon. Hopefully by the time the heads and intake are done, I'll have enough money for the LT4 hotcam kit, and then with the 3.42 gears from the sixspeed in my A4 it should be a little faster than it is now.........

You need to put the 6 spd in your car.

Yeah I know, but we can basically make out money back on the car by selling the tranny and conversion parts, Plus I don't feel like fucking with all that. I want the six speed in my car bad but I'd rather have the money to break even on the car, I really want the car for the rear end, heads, interior stuff and some other things, I might just slowly rebuild the motor thats in the car and then drop it in mine once its finished. We'll see what happens.

I might rebuild it, but then again I might not. If you are interested we can probably work something out, MY friend has another shortblock in his garage. I'll let you know whats going on when we get the car.

I still have my lt1 block for sale, you asked me about it probably about a month or two ago but you said you didn't have the money to buy it then...

I think it has like 125k miles on the car, we'd probably be looking for around $675 for everything to convert an auto to a 6 speed
