Default Are you kidding me - parts are getting outrageous.

Check out the newest post in the classified section....a console door spring - $25! What have we done to the cost of these cars....buy a clothes hanger, a pencil and a torch and heat and form your own....better yet, close the console door slowly by hand.....

dont feel bad for us, you have to look at it this way: 9 times out of 10 with the right car anything you spend on it, is "MONEY IN THE BANK" or better. this is just what i have found to be true with my cars.

I saw one go for $2k. Unfortunately, it's the one I need. That sucks!

...And have sold it before the crash. Then I could afford to buy all the parts I want.

I think I would go back and drop my life savings in Vegas on the US winning the 1980 Olympic Hockey Gold....then move to Bora Bora.
