The Ladies Dave, gotta think about the Ladies and they love that high pitch harmony.

when you're married you just can't think about the ladies..i know the ladies love that high pitch harmony but if i want to impress the ladies all i need to do is WASH the RX-8, lol...the ladiers seem to really love the 8..its still not as sexy as the LS.. i think most women just see the 8 and they thikn the driver as money and they fall for that concept..

although, i once had the pleasure of the company of a woman who enjoyed 7's as much as i do and actually thought the LS was God's gift to 7's. she's one that really melted my heart..but i dont think her family approved and the distance between us was 13+ hours. when we were together it was RX-7 magic, lol. one that i should have never let get away..we even parked our 7's next to one another like our children:

 

Wondered what the story was with the red GS partnered with your LS. What a lady! Good times.

 

she was the best Mike... not that i have any regrets with my wife now but i often wonder what it would be like to be back with her and that sunrise red 85 GS named Lucy... after our relationship she sold her two 7's and finished college..drives BMW now. i still send her messages, taunting her about the Barvarian machine she drives.

 

one more thing i want to add about Lucy's former owner is that she's a wonderful artist and always took pride in her 7. here's one pic she took and sent to me that i really enjoyed:



and one final pic of Lucy next to the LS:

 

Breakups are so unfortunate, it's always the kids that suffer the most. Do Lucy and LS ever see each other anymore?

 

unfortunatly no. Lucy was sold after Lucy's owner and i stopped seeing each other. i think the NC to OH distance was the killer. although she would come to OH and visit and i wold go to NC and visit. we even went to Myrtle Beach for a weekend once, which was nice because i had never seen or had been i the ocean before. so that was a nice time. her former owner and i still talk though which is super nice. i've been in search of Lucy who is somewhere in NC, as i would like to buy the car.

 

Sounds like a thread for another time.....Looking for Lost Lucy!

 

well, i will have more pics of the car in a couple of weeks. i have military training may 8-22 so, after that the car is coming out of storage and is going to be completely gone over.

 

can't wait to see them.

 

going to do the rear wheel bearings first and foremost. then it will be another oil change as well as coolant, trand and diff fluid and an overll inspection of all wear components. i will post pics of all that as well. might start a new thread to keep load up speed to a minimum.

 

if the weather complies, i plan on picking up the car next week and bringing it home. its sitting nicely in a garage with a cover on it. the car needs to see the sun once again!

 

the LS is home safe in my garage. pics to folow.

 

here's the car tucked away for the night. will start more work on the car tomorrow after i wake up. working 11p to 7a tonight.



also wanted to add that when i was cleaning the headlights i noticed that they too are the original lights which is pretty neat.

 

here are a few pics i snapped a few days ago. kind of an update as to where i'm at on the engine bay restoration. the most recent addition is new oem nuts for the strut mounts. i do hate how the flash magnifies the rust and makes it look much more horrid than it actually is:

 

Hey, Lucy's keeper wasn't named Lauren by chance, was she?

 

thats correct. know who has the car? any chance they'd sell it?

 

No idea, but I wouldn't mind getting the black GSL back that I sold her. Unfortunately, she had a lot of trouble with that car and the Holley. She called it Ricky, but I recall that it went for a long drive (sold to Texas, or thereabouts).

 

yeah, i'm not sure where it went. i can sak her if you'd like. i rememebr that car. it was a clean and solid car. pretty quick with that 13B!

 

I was always partial to that black GSL myself Crit, one fine car:





This Lauren knows how to pick 'em.

 

she sure does. one the the regrets in my life was letting her go...shouldnt've pushed her away

 

OK..... let's get this post back on track before the wife gets wind Dave......

 

good call. i've got more pics of the LS that i took today. more new shiney harwdward. i'll post them up here in a bit.

 

pics look great, car looks even better! Enjoy that thing man, I love it!
