Funny this thread popped up tonight.

I posted my trans am for sale last night on Facebook.

Over 500 comments ranging from 'OMG SUPER SICK CAR I LOVE THAT CAR SAD TO SEE IT GO' to 'OMG THE BLUE BOOK IS ONLY 4k ON THAT CAR LOL GOOD LUCK' and over 60 private message from prospective buyers, she has gone to a new home in less than 24 hours.

I feel a little yucky in my belly but I also have a bunch of cash in my pocket so...

You've put a lot of work into that car. Why did you sell it?

Sold it for a couple reasons.

One - the car has sat in the garage most of the year, I barely drove it this year and it was just wasting away, figured I would get out of it before I broke something on it.

Two - I am angling towards a new house, thats liquid money in the bank

Three - not to be too political, but the fact the democrats won the election has me thinking that the economy is going to take a shit, so the security is worth any emotional attachment I had

So yea thats pretty much it, multitiude of factors. If I get a wild hair I can jump back in, im going to also sell my softail i think today or tomorrow, and put that cash towards a different bike which I am going to cut up and build over winter time, so I will still have a (much cheaper) project to work on

There is a lot of shitty plastic in those. Where do you source that stuff?

I had a nice 78 and then an 87. The 87 was made in Mexico.

I own several 240Z's: I understand. They break when you look at them crosseyed, or trying to remove/ install them unless you buy new, remake. stuff.

My 78's dash was covered by carpet since day one, the 78 was trashed with a really nice dashcap installed.

My buddy has a 69 ss 396 that DR. Vinyl fixed (Kirk Potet) and 25 years later, it's still perfect. He did the door handles on my 65 T-bird (saving me a grand) and they held up great.
