Hey, not all of us are old timers Besides that, welcome to the site, I, like Mike, did not know they made a 94ls FWD... THAT IS A RARE SVX!!!

On the topic of the AWD v. FWD... FWD loses the battle in my eyes. Too many positive to outweigh the negatives with owning an AWD SVX versus a FWD. Having owned both I can speak from experience. The FWD's are prone to trans failure, just not so quickly so take care of that trans while you can now. Also keep a keen eye on the front diff oil. The acceleration of the FWD is mostly due to a slight difference in weight and also because of the 3.70 FD ratio as opposed to the 3.545 of the auto... Anyway enough technical babble, hope you like the car and lets see ya at some meets

Tom

I guess I missed all of that negative talk. That is why I didn't know why you felt the way you do. You do have a rare car, and that is why we asked so many questions about it. It is not a car for people over 30, and I think you will find that there are many on this site that are your age, or close to it. The members here love this car and don't like to see it abused or miss-used, and want to keep as many on the road as possible. I understand your lack of money and wanting to do most of the work yourself. For some of the more technical stuff, you may want some help to make sure it is fixed right the first time. It will save you money in the long run. We are here to answer questions and help where we can. Ignore some of the negative comments is they are not deserved. Good luck with your project and I hope you have success in getting your car up to the standard you want.
