Just make sure you put a good strong aftermarket CAT on this one to avoid the same fate....

I dont think the cat caused my other one to take a crap, it just had a full gut and was waiting to use the toilet

i think its a very very nice gesture and i applaud you for this. however i have to be a bummer on this one. i dont think it is a good idea to sell rock a turbo at this point. he is a nice kid, but we all have to admit, irresponsible and does not make the wisest choices. we love him.. but we all have to admit this regardless. giving him this car is like giving him a death sentence. I dont give him a year before he looses his life (or kills someone else) in that car. its too much power for someone who needs to get a little more maturity and growing up. i mean that in no disrespect at all. just concerned. i hope to god i am wrong.

congrats, but please be careful, be smart, and best of luck on the new ride.

I'm the wrench on this project. I can see that he has no more power than he needs or is ready for. It's already been thought of, lol.

Harry,
I understand your gesture and also talked things over with Dr.Boost before rock and I made a deal on it. I am sure Mr. Rock will be fine, I was also told I wouldn't live very long after I bought my car, heh did i ever prove them wrong. You must have respect for these cars, i'm sure once rock gets into the drivers seat of one he'll be fine.

Ok, maybe I'm crazy. Even though I just purchased a 88 S tonight on E-bay, I hate to see a good car parted out that only has a bad engine. How much you want for the car. That is a nice car, and I hate to see it get parted out.

Lol that warms my heart a bit, but i dont think i can do that.

That picture is one of the best pictures it has had.

Now it has a white turbo bumper missing the 951 nose panel and headlight covers, torn seats, tan door panels, pretty damn good dash, engine is dirty, needs a clutch badly, and the transmission isnt hanging in there too well. paint looks bad now. Its just been begging to go to sleep, and ill probally need half the parts to finish the turbo. Sorry man

Well, Nurse Rock, I hope that everything goes well during the revival phase. I'm certain that Dr. Kihm will have her tearing up the road in no time. Congratulations!
