After a fun day or driving 800+ miles to pick up MIKE-P-28's 85 Cosmo powered beast its now at home in Pauls shop ready for the winter fun.
About $150 in gas, 4 Mt. Dews, 3 paks of Cheese crackers ,2 McDonalds meals and 13hrs of driving
Many thanks go out to Mike for all the little extras that came with it and only wish I had more time to play with the pinball machines!
the trip was excellent, very little traffic only about 1hr of rain the rest was a nice scenic drive.
Saw 1 3rd gen and 4 RX-8's on the way and a few other nice toys.

Now to start making out the battle plan and getting everything ready in the shop, its going to be a long winter

 

85 Cosmo ? you mean the Rx 5 ?

 

So what are the plans for the car? Are you going to swap everything over to your car, or finsh the buildup on that body?

Either way, Let me know how it goes!!

 

did you get a test drive in on it?

 

85 GSL with a Cosmo 13B-RE engine

Plans - Looks like the car will be going to Paul for him to swap his Haltech'd 13B S4 into
and I will be getting all the Cosmo goodies for my car, after a winters worth of powercoating and polishing everything.

No test drive, cept for on and off the tow dolly I already knew what I was getting so driving its was not needed. and theres no fenders or front bumper and no tags or insurance. I'll wait till I get the title transfered tommorow and then maybe take it out for a spin down Pauls road, or maybe not, and just wait till spring when its done.

 

oh cmon, you gotta at least take it for a spirited spin at night, then you know what you got in your hands, and how so ****** fun it's going to be once you get it done. and motivation if you want to quit, none of this "i'm giving up posts"

 

Like you really needed another car. Good luck with it.
