no I had to sell the white one to pay for my new digs. I hated to sell it as it was my late wifes car.and just got done rebuilding her. the black car which was down for 3 years is the only one I have left. the nice thing is mechanically it is a new zr1. I did cut a few ponys by deciding to use stk 92 mufflers, guess I am getting old and wanted the car to be quiet.oh I now live in ridgecret ca if anyone is never in the neighborhood the address is 4056 sydnor ave . which is on the corner of calvert and sydnor

and more and more of these neighbourhoods are cracking down on loud cars... so why risk it.

I also took a google map look at your area... dude, if that was any farther out in the boondocks, they would have to import their sticks.

yeah but where else can one find 3/4 of an acre 1200 sq ft. that has been totally redone inside.(outside needs lot of work a 2 car garage complete with air compressor. 2 car ports and another garage for storage for 33k. it is actually a lot closer to civilization than lonepine . there are 20k people in ridgecrest and only 2k in lonepine .so actually I moved to civilization .hehe one benefit is there are a lot of vacant roads to do a little testing from time to time and not a traffic jam in site .so there are some benefits .

no need for the plug... just going to swap them, I posted more detail in the other thread.

I don't blame you. If you can own, free and clear, that rocks!
