| I should keep a running total in my signature of how many car's you've swapped since I've set the sig.
Let's see...
Two S10s Two Fleetwoods Two Sierras The Subafail Now an F-body
Am I missing any? Do you have a NH Dealer license or something? If you sold that many cars in Florida, I'm pretty sure you'd be required to have one. lol |

| Dammit I LIKED the Caddy a LOT!! It better be a GOOD F-body and not some plastic POS from the mid-90's.......and it better have T-tops or a ragtop or there is no point at all.
I seriously think you need help with your car-dealing. I thought I was bad. Jeez.....

| I did/do too! But she won't let me keep them all! And I've been jonesin' for another 3rd gen for 15 years now! It's almost exactly what I've been looking for. 89 formula, t-top, 5 speed car only a pair of bumper covers away from exactly what I wanted! Think 5.3 turbo, t56, 4th gen t/a seats, slammed on 18's. Cuz that's what's gonna happen. | |

| Ok it's a 3rd Gen Formula T-top....you're mostly forgiven. The stick really helps my mood. How's the underside. I swear they rusted even down here, but 3rd gens are a ton of fun. Beats the living crap out of a Subaru any day. Pics or you're fired..... | |

| There is a nice white GTA around the corner from me I REALLY like to. I can understand this more than the Caddy...... I am sure you will make some bucks on the Caddy to help offset this one.
BTW I did notice the Sub still in the driveway with the picture of the hood for the truck. Whats up with that? | |

Or at least to the county line where it'll break down again....... Sorry Bill I won't miss that one. I liked it when you first got it but it cured me of Subarus for life. Thanks for that by the way! | |

Saved and dated for future use........ LOL, aside from the color and t-tops, I also looked at an 89 WS6 Formula with a blown engine. Was going to drop the LT1 from the Rusty Roadie into it for kicks. Issue with that car was the A-pillers were rotted through right in the middle (think where you put a police spot) on both sides. Oh that and it was trashed inside and hood was dented. But I would so rock one of those 3rd gen. I HATED them when they came out but now.....the last Formulas and the convertible Z28s have really grown on me. | |

| The 15-inch on the base Birds were bleh, the deeper 16's were sharp.
But again to each their own!
I love the crosslace ones too, like the T/A and GTA had.

Interesting thing is tho, after you buy a 48ft trailer to put all your stuff in,. you end up needing another one,. because you bought lots of stuff that normally you wouldn't buy, but bought because you had a 48ft trailer with loads of roomfor stuff,. Nick proud owner of only 1 48ft trailer full of b-body "stuff" and 2 wagons,. | |

| You ought to outdo yourself and sell it before you even buy it! They've been banned in a lot of places, but one of those wheeled, 70's signs with the blinking arrow would be perfect right out in the front yard. You could easily change the "FOR SALE" info with that big box of letters that comes with them | |

| Jim, The Camaro was actually sitting at a ford dealership (trade in) I actually just wanted the center caps off it I found out the car was going to the auction, and got it for a steal actually traded it for a 82 G Body Grand Prix with a Blown Up Motor & Trans. (No money transaction!!) Its not perfect but the body is real clean, and runs half way decent. Interior needs some work, but ahh what the heck nothing alittle time & $$ cant fix. And the wifey always wanted a Third Gen Camaro | |

Nice score! Here's my former rust-bucket. I thought I could fix it....but it became a parts car for a guy up in Fort Worth. Too bad, not many '89 Iroc ragtops out there now: And here's the '82 Z28 that Ben still wants me to come get. Maybe next year! I love 3rd gens! -Mike | |

I'm interested in the teal green s10 you have for sale. Is the grandpa topper included? How long have you owned it? Has it given you any trouble? Please let me know. I have cash or will trade my Subaru wagon if you're interested.
