Congrats to Rusty
I would like to congratulate Rusty for going from his wrecked 89 Maroon GTA to his newly acquired Red 89 GTA in less than a week. He swapped the necessaries over and we went for a test run on Saturday, which was quite an experience, because I have never ridden in a car without seats. Much less one that is going sideways with me sliding around on the floor board

Sweet! Congrats Rusty
That red GTA was very nice. How does it feel? I bet with the better gearing you get some nice low end.

The other car was already too wounded from the prior owners t-bone accident to repair properly. I'm glad it was put out of its misery and he has moved on to a better car. Now he can swap the headlight repair kit to the new car.
"He swapped the necessaries over and we went for a test run on Saturday..." Funny, I would have THOUGHT that a front seat was a "necessary".
