I was thinking of a Del-tran battery tender, car sits for long stretches. Its non op right now. I need to get new headers and a catted Y, then smog and all that crap. CA sucks for emissions!!

No, in the garage, covered. I had it outside to clean out some stuff in the garage. I have a 2.5 car garage and the only car that goes in there is the 'Hawk

LOL, do they really call it a 2.5 garage? I gues it could be a three car garage if you had a classic Mini...

I actually laughed when the realtor told us that. I told her we wanted $5k deducted from the price cuz we dont own half a car, she didnt like that comment. Im a smartass, deal with it.
