Default introduction... 98 t/a owner

hi guys...

i figured i'd introduce myself. after 10 years of driving and many many cars i've picked up a 98 t/a.

its a 6 spd and current mods are loudmouth exhaust, hurst shifter, hotchkis control arms and track bar.

i'm going to be putting on 17x9.5" ZR1 wheels this weekend.

in the past i;ve owned an '89 formula 350, a 90 mustang GT with a 306 (owned it 9 years) an E36 M3, a '71 Monte, 7 F series trucks.. and now this 'bird.



the tow rig isn;t mine

Thanks.

the car has 76k on it, but seems to have been well cared for. it's extremely tight, the body, paint and interior are excellent. It had 4 new tires and the few bolt-ons.


i recently purchased a house and sold a few vehicles. i was looking to free up some $$$ and i was looking to spend under 10k on a t/a or formula to daily drive in nice weather and tinker with, so this fit the bill.

i did the waterpump last weekend (weep hole weeping) and put my 17x9.5" Zr1 wheels on it. I've also done a coolant flush, oil change and a tranny fluid change.

next plan is to get a hood.

that was fast..... 1 yr later it's gone! i was just looking at the pics from that first... it was a great car!
