So I got an offer for $2K for my car from my boss for his daughter who I would bone in a heartbeat.

But the car ain't mine.

However, my mom might let me sell it, and use the money as a down payment towards a newer car.

I already got a couple picked out, and one's a Trans Am Convertible.

wow I wish I could sell my car for 2K! I'd buy a 90-93 Honda Accord or 92-95 Prelude...I really want an H22 or H22a1 swap w/ lsd tranny.

man 2k would be nice! I was thinking if someone would give me 2k for my tour. I would sell it and use that cash for a down payment on a new car.

considering I've got nearly $15K into mine (not counting the cost of the car) I'd probably pass on the 2K offer.

i might be picking up a 92 integra with a fully built engine and head. The engine has no miles on it and im going to have to put the engine in since its been sitting on the crate for i think 2 years.

Hector, I hate you.


What were you thinking?


A babied car, driven grandma style, with lots of mods, for $3k. You're crazy.

See here is the problem.....everyone says now that they wanted the car, but the car was in the classifieds TWICE....and all I got was part out questions.....so when I got somewhat of an offer I took it. Whatever....I moved on to bigger and better things to play with.

Yeah too bad you sold it to that sh!thead.

Ditto. Even though my 'tour isn't worth sh!t in KBB, there's no way I could replace it with anything close for $2k.

With the turbo and suspension, I'll probably have $5-6k invested. None of which I'll get back, but hey that's why it's a hobby. That and I'll be one of a handful of FI'd Zetec Contours in the country.

If I knew you would accept that low of an offer, I woulda jumped on it. I thought you wanted more.

Yes but both times listed over $6K? I don't think any one here would've thought to offer that low...

Yea, so who bought it...?
Posted By: R_G Re: its dead in here - 12/20/05 08:30 PM
I offered Hec a mod'ed 1998 Duratec (previously owned by RoadRunner)+ $3,000 and got no response.

Who bought it? A fawken shitehead who cursed CEG out a week ago (in the General Forum)

That is just plain sad. The only reason why his car exists is because of the CEG.

Do not bone your bosses daughter, or your boss for that matter. Bad news, man.

Hector, I was in the market for a replacement 'Tour 'bout the time you sold yours. Wish I'd have known you'd go that low... As it stands I ended up with the V-6 'Stique - and work to do...
Posted By: Loco4G63 Re: its dead in here - 12/21/05 04:43 AM
It was in the classifieds for a month....had a link in my sig too.
Posted By: TourDeForce Re: its dead in here - 12/21/05 05:13 AM
Well, I wasn't about to lowball you, Hector. IIRC you were asking 6k when I saw the add, so I figured your final price was gonna be more than what I was willing to spend to replace my 'Tour.

Too bad for both of us, that was a really nice lookin' car, and supercharged to boot! Damn, man. I feel like I let you down...
Posted By: Hydramatic Re: its dead in here - 12/21/05 07:49 AM
OK! I'm back!

So I just got an early christmas present. My dad just sent me $2k.

Now I'm thinking about keeping the Merc and getting to work finding a nice 302 to go into the Maverick.



I'm thinking, here's what the car's gonna look like...

rebuilt 302
4bbl intake manifold
4bbl carburetor
4-speed MTX from my Uncle's '70 Mach 1 (spring loaded clutch baby!)
dual side exhaust
black paint with a white stripe down the center...
The Other Ponycar badges everywhere...
most likely a more suitable cam than what the stock engine will have in it (It'll probably be from an LTD...)

Here's an idea. How 'bout you sell the Maverick, take all the cash & put a RWD V-8 into your Merc??

Please tell me you're joking...

I'll take a daily driver and a musclecar over an idea that won't work anyday.

Well, with an attitude like that of course it won't. People like you are the reason the world has engineers like me. You tell everyone it can't be done, then we do it to show you it can.....Give me 2 years and i'll be pulling into SZ with a v8 RWD SVT....already looking at a donor car.
