Sounds like an awesome deal! That car looks pretty good from the pict. Who's jumping on this one? (I edited your message a bit and removed the un-necessary crud to make it easier to understand)

should i even consider buying this car? *long*
Hi guys... I had to clean up a bit in here..... Sorry 'bout that. Things went downhill when you stopped talking about the car and about the "situation" instead...

Blonde jokes
This seems appropriate now. After spending time with Eve, Adam was walking in the Garden with God. Adam told God how much the woman means to him and how blessed he feels to have her. Adam began to ask questions about her. Adam: Lord, Eve is beautiful. Why did you make her so beautiful? God: So you will always want to look at her. Adam: Lord, her skin is so soft. Why did you make her skin so soft? God: So you will always want to touch her. Adam: She always smells so good. Lord, why did you make her smell so good? God: So you will always want to be near her. Adam: That's wonderful Lord, and I don't want to seem ungrateful, but why did you make her so stupid? God: So she would love you.

Z.com is up and running....
Yea, seems like a lot of sites are going to that dark background with lighter text. It's ok, but, I prefer the lighter sites. I guess it all depends on the theme or overall perception of the site content. I understand about the budget thing... just givin all of you a hard time. :cheeky: Me? Internet connection is one of the top on my budget list. It never gets cut. Probably because I don't have a life.

Flash should be abandoned? Or should we look at abandoning dial-up?! For the cost of two phone lines, you can have a nice fat pipe to the internet. Broadband is $40/month in most areas and I still can't believe people use the dia-up approach. C'mon people! Catch up! You can even get internet on your cell phone now. Not to mention pictures, games, GPS, play songs, etc...... Take your cable television (or satellite) bill and cancel the service. Who needs TV. Well, at least keep the Discovery Channel and Speed Vision subscription.

Tranny won't go back in?!?
So, let's take a look at what needs to happen when you slide a tranny into the engine. Transmission shaft must align with two things: clutch teeth and pilot bushing. Take it one step at a time. 1) Does your clutch teeth slide down the tranny shaft easily? You might need to remove it and push it up and down the shaft to make sure. 2) Does the tranny shaft tip fit easily into the pilot bushing? If these two items are ok, then you have something else blocking the bellhousing. Are all of these parts stock or did you buy aftermarket or high performance parts?

They could have done better. Fill it up with gas, put a ramp at the end of the deck, and shoot the car! KABOOM!

Tranny won't go back in?!?
Don't force it !! That tranny should slide right in after you get past the frustrating part. Pull it out and make sure you didn't do something to that pilot bushing. Are you using the bushing or did you buy an upgraded version with the bearings? You might also have to put the tranny in gear so that it will rotate when you rotate the outter housing. Right now it might be sitting still while you rotate the housing and not lining up. BTW: I've changed many clutches in my day and I've never used an alignment tool. I simply align the clutch disk by holding it up on the outer edge of the pressure plate.

buying a 240
Send your business to Troy Thacker. He's one of our supporters. And, they also have hard-to-find items that might not be available at some of the mass marketing guys.

Car register[s]?
Yea, this is a good idea. But, I don't want to re-invent the wheel. Carl has done a lot of work on this, so, I'll approch him to see if it can be updated.

I can tell you that even tiny bubbles can be a sign that things are MUCH WORSE on the inside. I can guarantee that you'll have a lot of work on your hands.... just by the description you gave. If you have the tools and the welding experience, go for it.

What happened to the part about her wanting to get it running because she loves the car? Did she just decide to sell it to you at some point?

White-faced guages
Can you really print these and install them ? Somehow I don't trust that method. Even buying a vinyl sticker and putting that on the guage seems to be an evil thing to do. Doesn't someone make a plastic cover for the guages? I mean, something that will snap into place that can be removed at a later date? I seem to remember finding this kind of thing last year. But, I blew it off because my project is so far out.
