@ don

I'm in Citrus County, FL.
Richmond doesn't sound that far away just to fix my car. I'll see if my mom can drive me up there.

Don,
What is the weight of the trans?

The dash cluster for the auto trans has an illuminated gear selection that may not be a big deal if you switch to the 5 speed... I just like the idea of having the correct instrument group. Jeff

Bad News:
Mom won't help.

Worse News:
I've been informed that I have to get rid of the car.

I don't want to scrap it.
Anyone live near me?

Bad news indeed.

Honor the Mom and you'll live long enough to get a second chance.

I will be in Florida for 10 days in July and would like to take a look at your car. Can you email or post some photos?

Unfortunately, no.

I have to scrap it.

She said I can't make a deal with anyone from out of town.

DAMMIT!!!

Thanks for all your help.

I plan on returning in a few years, just maybe with a newer *cough*E34 Touring*cough* BMW...

EDIT: Jeff, check your PM.
