True that. Maybe I can buy Schnelly's race motor for it - think it would fit?

Schnelly, please post a pic of you dragging the race motor around your back yard on a dolly. (you can leave your shirt on)

Actually that's kinda cool looking! Are those seller pics or did you drive the white Type R sitting across the street to pick it up? If seller pics maybe he/she upgraded to the Type R.

Reminds me of the Nissan Pulsar that my daughter had. Glad it's gone.

Nope, it was ebay. It may very well end up on BaT in the not-too-distant future, though.

Well, I had one in high school and the first year of college. So, I've always had a soft spot for them, no matter how crappy of a daily driver it was. Someday, I was going to get one, but "someday" meaning several years from now. Heck, I'll probably play around with it for a few months and flip it. Not sure I'll even fit in the damn thing as I'm a good 60 pounds heavier now than what I was in high school.
