SVX for SALE!

How depressing.. My SVX has been overheating every week or two.. even after topping off! [Another thread here] Keep topping .. pint or so each time? Dint wanna admit that I saw bubbles bubbling into the overflow reservoir.. After work yesterday, I topped off again.. and siphoned off the excess coolant in the overflow reservoir (almost to top).. This morning, it was close to the top again.. and bubbles bubbling into reservoir, even though coolant gauge showed normal temp! Yikes! I've evidently gone full circle.. back to head gasket problem I had last August.. when I decided to get "new" Nate engine! I have to believe he did the head gaskets.. So, I must have stressed (warped) when first test driving this "new" engine in June (?) when it evidently had air pocket.. I drove home with heater on in red zone .. for about 5 miles ??
