My 3rd gen days are over(for now)

Well, I'm getting rid of my '85 Trans Am.

I just put down a deposit on a 2001 WS6!

I loved my '85, but the engine finally gave out. The repairs are more money and trouble I would like to put into it at this point.
Besides the engine, there is tons of other work needed to be done before it looks, runs, or is reliable again.
Plus, I saw the deal on the '01 and I had to take it.

This doesnt mean I'm done with 3rdgens quite yet though. My buddy has a '88 GTA that needs a bit of work, so I'll be helping him out, and eventually I will get another 3rdgen, but its gotta wait for now.

I'll always love 3rd gens, and i'll still be around the boards.

Matt

If your car isn't worth a lot right now, why get rid of it? save it for a rainy day

I wish I could but I dont have the space to store it. I'm trying to see if any of my buddies has some extra garage space, but I'm having no luck.
