im thinking about fixing the ss and puting it up for sale
i started thinking today about how much money its gonna cost me in say 5 years to keep it.
new motor 3k- mines at 138k and i like to race.
new slicks or dr every year-500.00
new clutch again-800.00
high milege maintenance like alt,ps pump ect-500.00
thats around 5k.im thinking of selling it so i can get my samurai running again.
i really dont need but around 1k to get the samurai going but its actually a whole lot of fun.i know i could quit racing it and i might could keep the cost down but thats why i have a camaro is to run the hell out of it,not to go get grocerys.
someone help me out here,im also buying a house and the camaro is payed for
so the extra money would be a good security blanket to.
dam i just need a good job!anyone hiring lol----SERIOUSLY
thanks joe.
