I'm so bummed about that donor car getting sold . I feel like I could actually start crying over it. It was a battered old GTU, with a full TII conversion (rebuilt engine, full TII drivetrain and all TII electronics), and it had the full 5-lug setup I need. All of that for $1100. I was planning on buying it, pulling out all the TII parts and 5-lug parts to put in my base, throwing the 4-lug back into the donor car and selling it as a 4-lug n/a shell for a couple hundred bucks. The only downside to the whole thing is the seller ported the engine when it was apart, which made me kind of nervous without actually seeing them. I was going to most likely buy a set unported irons from japan2LA for a little over $300 or so (judging from prices I saw in his old threads), and a gasket/o-ring kit from Atkins for $290 and reassemble it in stock format. (I already went over all of this, didn't I )

But I guess I didn't move quick enough. I went and looked at it last Sunday, it all seemed pretty solid. I planned on coming back, but... such is life.

Damn it, typing all that out made me depressed again .
