I am considering trading my Galant VR4 for some type of sport bike, preferably a Buell, but I am open to anything. I don't need to get rid of it, but it is taking up space and I don't need 3 cars.
*I may also be interested in some kind of small car for my dad to daily drive, but I would want cash on top.
It could use a better tune, has a little paint fade, and it idles high until warmed up.
It was originally a Colorado car, and as a result has very little rust. It was owned by it's last owner for 15 years who made it very clear that he cared for the car.
After buying the car I fixed a couple tie rods and bushings, replaced the tires, rewired the fuel pump, added a boost controller, and did all the general maintenance the car needed to be reliable. From May of 2009 to October of 2009 I put 10,000 miles on the car and loved every minute of it... then this happened.
The car still ran, but obviously had a massive oil leak, and the oil pressure wasn't the best /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif
So out with the old ...
and in with the new
This is as the car now
