I have a love-hate thing for the PT Cruiser. It's a cool retro-looking car/truck, but the interior looks like a K Car!

Perry--THAT is one nice version of the PT! I bet it rides smooth too!! Enjoy!

Now Brian, the question of the day is-- Have you told these guys about attempting to park the Buiey on 4 foot snow piles or 40 mph runs into shopping carts in the parking lot at the local grocery store? How about brake slides and neutral drops? That car is a damn TROOPER! You need to give it a honorable send off... I still think my 80 mph blast up an emergency brake-failure off ramp in the WV mountains sounds like fun! Would be some good video footage if nothing else!
And I will say that the Cruiser is quite the DD. I have been in that thing numerous times and it rides well. Now... up the boost a bit, see what it can really do!

I think a more profitable send-off would be a "sledge party".

Pay $20, get 5 whacks at the car with your tool of choice.

Although, I don't know if it could be donated when you are done.

Big-E... actually had that discussion at work yesterday. I don't think it would make it to WV to hit the ramp... 1 gallon of water in 15 miles! You are right, that car has been a serious trooper. I put an *** load of miles on it, changed the oil when I felt like it, and it cost me $500 to begin with. It took the abuse like a man!!

Jack - $4 a whack? I could make some serious cash on that!!!

Now... up the boost a bit, see what it can really do!
Um... see the rods come out the side of the block? Yea... it sits at 8psi.

Brian,
Good to hear you got a nice, really nice daily driver. Keep them miles off the fiddy one.
Must be karma as I picked up a newbie today as well. It's a 82 911SC from the left coast. It should be here by December. Now I just gotta make some room...HMMMM could be a 85.5 944na available real soon.

Tim
