Oh man, that sucks about your car.

Speaking of auto to stick, I'm converting my Cosmo. The tranny is in. The next step is pedals and cylinders. Doesn't seem too hard so far. I'd imagine a 7 would be similar as long as you avoid the weird '84 - '85 autos.

IIRC, the manual pedals of a RX-4 is similar to a cosmo. Well, too bad, I sold my last set 3 months ago.

I think many will agree with that . I'm too young to let this be the last of my 7 days. I will figure out something, and it will be better then ever.

welcome to my world. I had a little brush with 'trailing oversteer' on a freeway onramp. That was two years ago, and my white GSL still has a silver front end and a newly straightened frame. I wish you the best.
