Really? REALLY!? WTF. I just plunked down almost 2x that on a drivetrain for my racecar. I could have bought that and covered the fuel to take my enclosed trailer 1/2 way across the country and back and still had money left over to put fancy rubber on that.

DAMN, DAMN, DAMN my timing is the suck.

I planted all the seeds for one of these in the driveway a few years ago, just waiting for them to sprout.

Hope springs eternal.

To the OP, that is an impressive build!

Nice build. If I didn't already have one I would be interested.

Quick question. What brand and size radiator is that. I'm running a std first gen radiator and am looking for more cooling.

It is if you help me Move it.

I'm looking at options to get it here as we speak. I'm planing to go over Saturday and Pay for it, I'd like to drag it back with me.. but no truck.

Take a strong friend and a toolbox and swap the other motor in and drive it home. Swap really shouldn't take more than 3 hours start to finish.

Well I've decided to pass on this one. The logistics of getting it here, and some other factors are making me just concentrate on current projects. I got some additional pictures of the car's interior from the seller and it looks awesome. My decision to pass on the car has nothing to do with the vehicle. It is Cfabros' Car. Talking to him he sounds like a great guy, hopeful one of you crazies jumps on this and picks it up.

I am breathing into a bag right now. Do you have any idea how over-leveraged I am? Would you dangle Bob Costas in front of David Duchovny? What is wrong with you people?

Same issue here Walter, and I am 80 miles away... and have access to a trailer... and just found an airplane hanger for cheap.

I must go to bed now, this isn't fair.

Thanks everyone, I added an update.

Dan, nice to talk to you and your MG looks awesome, look forward to you finishing it up and running it.

AngryCorvair, yes, that's me, that pic is from The Palace, I was running the Fiero that event and some other guys were running the Spitfire.

All, this is a good deal and I am thinking of getting it going again myself and trying to sell it for more, so if you have serious interest act soon, it's at the front of my to-do list now, this is posted nowhere else on the web. If it doesn't sell very soon I will go through it myself and the price will be very different.

Arg! I resisted as long as I could. But I finally sent you an email.

If this thing really shows up in my driveway I'm going to be in so much trouble.

Gah!!! And if you get it and get in trouble, it'll be that much closer to me.
