i'm still trying to figure it out. when tom came to colorado to do my 5mt conversion, he said he'd do a valve cover job if i drove it to reading. now it needs a hood, which he also has. i just don't know if i can justify burning a week's vacation to drive out there. i'm still considering flying, but that will be twice as expensive this year.

I think you would really enjoy the drive though. I took a drive cross country once and it was the best!

Re: another one bites the dust?

Well, all in all it looks like it could have been much worse. Glad to see it got some TLC.

On a side note, were those pics taken in Black Hawk? Only place around here I can think of off the top of my head that has that much concrete reinforcement on the side of a hill.

Re: another one bites the dust?

the next items on my list is a passenger side headlight since the holes the grille clips into were broken off and a new hood.

Re: another one bites the dust?

I'm surprised I haven't made it into your Colorado sightings thread. I've been behind the wheel of my 92 since the day I bought it. Just can't get enough of that car
