Talking You ever feel just totally selfish??

Sometimes I do. Like right now for example. I just wish someone would just give me a complete rear end out of an GSL. You know, with disc brakes and LSD.


Whats on your "Wish someone would give me" list?

Have a great day. Sorry for the totally pointless thread.....

Later,
Bill

I wished for that and even went to pick and pull for one. Couldn't find one but a random stranger offered me an 82 GSL for FREE, so now I'm swapping out my suspension in my '79.

remember, ALL GSL's came with a LSD. where's there's a LSD, there's disc brakes or vice versa. ther was some talk awhile ago that the S and GS could be ordered with the GSL's rear end. i have never personally seen an S or GS with a stock limited slip rear end and the rear discs. i've seen conversions.

I wish someone would buy my apartment, so I could finally get a shop/house of my own and some customers to pay it off for me.

Maybe a sidewiped or rearended RX-8 so I could make a full engine/wireing transplant in my FB.

I'd love it if someone dropped 10 grand and a decent RX8 in front of me for free! I could get my conversion done!
