Bump-Date,

So we need a 2tc. The thing will not roll over, wish it was a manual so we could drag it around! But we want a 2tc or something close. An engine that is attatched to an auto tranny would be favorable! We wanna keep it as stock as we can, Help!

:DJust now reading this....I work loads of hours so not much time for computer. Thanks for the offer to be another son, but I am already

raising another, my grandson.....he is 5. My daughter named him, guess what......David Patterson! Don't think that isn't confusing !!!!

 

Dave said there is a function on Sept. 18/19??? Will supply cookies and for you, of course most excellent chocolate chip.

Need more requests....what other kinds do members want?

Nice car. I really want that thing. That's my daughters name. She would crap herself if I came home with a car with her name on it. :lol:

 

 

Maybe you could search and find some of the Carina emblems and make something cool for her wall. I have always liked

the various car chrome names and decorations.

She is now 27 Years old. I don't think she would hang that on her wall. But thanks for the idea. :)

Update:

Pappy and I drove to Oly to pick up a donor car for $260. Its a runner, and was stuffed with spare parts, couple extra grilles, and a bunch of marker lights, ect! Started strippin the engine and tranny out and should have it out tomorrow. Plan on swapping over what we can to the carina cause this car was a driver till a couple months ago (Fuel Pump) Heres the Oics!
