So yesturday I was home with a sick little angel who has a nasty chest cold cough, all that fun stuff, I was emailing a couple people about parts, and I'm staring out the window at my god-awful purple impala. The car is in super shape for a Maine car with 102k miles. It's in to good shape to hack up and put a t56 in, even if it is purple.
So the plans have changed, I'm taking the other 95 that is almost complete (was wrecked) and hack it up for my first 6 speed project. The purple car will go to the painters sometime and be returned to it's glory DGGM color, or maybe I should sell it as is, and put the money into the 6 speed car.
I'll feel much better screwing up a car with 125k than one with 102k.
