Subject: bought another car by L18_B110 on 2003/7/30 3:55:52
I just bought another car a couple of days ago - pick it up next Monday. Yet another impulse buy...
It's a 1983 HR30 Skyline coupe with L20 6cyl turbo engine (at the moment ). Red over dark grey with 15" Simmons 3peice alloys. but it is pretty run down. The secretary of our car club has owned it for the last 6 years, and I doubt it has even been washed in that time! Has rust in both front gaurds and around the boot rubber. I don't exactly know what I'm going to do with this one, I just have a soft spot for these things and there isn't many around (up here anyway). It needs a respray, and RB20DET or RB25DE half cuts are pretty good value these days, so I probably won't mess around with the turbo L series 6.
On 1200 news, my coupe is going in for the cage friday week! I can't wait - I'm like a little boy before christmas! Not so much fun is the job of scraping off all the soundproofing from the floorpan...
And my everyday car, an R31 Skyline, got ripped open down the drivers side by a young woman driving a rented Pantec truck while it was parked outside a friends place. So it's been a big week so far... did I mention I got my tax bill too? arrrgggghh! oh well, back to thinking about my new cage going in, and the new Skyline...
