I voted sell buy cry. Here's the thing though, hold out the $500 that you originally spent on her. That way you can buy another one later.

Family comes first no matter what.....Catch up on the bills. And buy another seven later....I've done it twice with cars i loved...but you'll love another car. and nothing causes more problems in a relationship then money does.....let the car go...

Leave the wife and move into the car! or, sell it and pay the bills and have a great financially stress free holiday season! Just remember someday to come back to the dark side!

There are other sevens out there... I've had 7 of them.. hmm... Anyway, next time, you'll know exactly what you want and maybe you could even find one with a 13b. (like I did.)

Unfortunately, I have to sell mine for a similar reason... need a truck, can't afford 3 vehicles.

If you love this car that much. Try and find alternatives of financing x-mas & bills. I started selling parts I had collected.

You KNOW what you NEED to do. You don`t need anybody but yourself to tell you what that is!

Having the car is all well & good, but taking care of responsibilities is the right thing to do. Sell it. You can always get another one later on, when you're financially able.

maybe , just maybe , I might have lined upenough good work to pull the season off. the offer stands so I can fall back on it, I just cant stomach the thought of some one else banging the gears on my creation. Seriously the thing was wacked in the rear bad, I had a vision biult it in 5weeks. one of the the first projects i ever finished. and it turned out so sweet, im gonna try to keep it, but first sign of financial distress its gone. then ill have to trick out the 87, it already has straight pipes t2 trans and other goodies, thanks for the love, trev
