Most obscure?

That would be my dealership parts manual

I aso have the R&T guide, numerous pre-release brochures and sales literature, the SVX video owners manual, Service Manual, the SVX CD, and copies of a lot of SVX tests from various magazines, most of whcih are scanned and in in my locker for review.

OUCH!!!

That kinda hurts to look at too!

The price you pay for being a pioneer, for which many SVX owners are grateful! (For those that have joined us in the last couple years, Huck is actually the first person we know of to ever put a manual transmission in an SVX. All the people and businesses that have done it since either followed his method, or at the very least were inspired to know it was now possible.)

Oh yeah?

Well I have a Hooked-Up yellow carbon fiber SVX wrench that adds 5 HP to my car for every bolt I tighten with it! Beat that, Dawg!

I'm surprised no one talked about the signature pieces from the 10th anni meet.

My most obscure SVX item is the pair of little, bumper colored buttons that go onto the front bumper. They must be removed to add the rubber front license plate holder.

I also have a front dash mat. . It protects the top of the front dash. It is a nylon cloth piece that is beige colored. I use it in the '97 to protect the top of the dash in the summer. It matches the sand colored interior of the SVX very well. The fit is very good, not perfect, but very good.

Come on Larry, I know you of all SVXers can do better than those! I bet lots of people w/o front plates have the bumper covers and the dash mat isn't even an official OEM SVX item.

If I know you, I'm sure you have some big stash of rare items, autographed parts, and after Reading this year you'll probably have a Neon SVX sign too!

Anyone in the NW area have any of the dealer signs, or better yet the big banners, from the SVX? They would be great for display at some of our NWSVX event, especially at the banquets, seafood meet, etc.

Guess I could see if anyone out there wants to give us one, or sell it cheap, but yeah right!

Yeah, the scar RULES! (as painful as it is to look at)

Like I said, the scar represents more than just a guy working on his SVX, it represents THE first successful attempt at the tranny conversion that all others followed. Truly a piece of SVX history.

(If you ever decided you didn't need that finger, you could probably hack it off and preserve it and put it up for auction - Earl and Larry would have a bidding war to try to put it in their SVX museums.)
