Yeah, I don't think you're allowed. And the car is filthy anyways, you don't want to deal with that. I'll take it off your hands for you

Wow why can't I find sweet deals like that! SDL's hold their value in my area. If you do decide to part it out for some reason I would be interested in a bunch of stuff.

Hopefully you can get her running.

Texas is where its at for sweet car deals. I got my pristine wagon for a song in Dallas. Of course, mine was able to drive home.

Looks nice, I'm sure you'll have a good time with it.

peace,
sam

Yep, and she MADE me do it too. SWMBO has been on my tail for a 126 ever since last summer when I let that cherry red SD in Ft Worth give me me the slip. We'll see how this one turns out.

Heh, you guys are a riot. This is SOUTH Austin; they won't even let you live out here unless you have four or five cars, a old couch or recliner on your front porch and a dog that bites. On the street that leads to Area 51, there are at five other houses with cars in the driveway, blocking the sidewalk. I've been doing it on and off for almost 12 years. Plus, I'm on the good side of our resident "Ms Tidy Bowl"; she knows that she can put stuff for the dump in the back of the TOAD anytime.

All right. I'll move just across the border into mexico then.


BTW--My wife used to live in Houston. She was no competition. She thinks I'm nuts for driving an "old" car so she drives a new Honda. Do I hear cheers?

Cheers,

Bill

Actually the reason is that we are running out of water... in drought years we are on water rationing... and those happen pretty regularly.....
