Who’s coming tonight? Where are we meeting? My SA is keen to get out of the garage for a night on the town.

I can't make it, the Nikki is still giving me fits (must have angered the Rotary Gods, but I'm not sure what I did).

Somebody take some pics of those SA's and post them up!

Dang, that's one Hot Rod FD. Does the guy who owns it have Life Insurance?

An impressive 12A count for December. I like the New Math.

And the pictures ain't bad either. You have potential Tommy.

And you gotta love those pointy little 1sr gen noses. 12A's Rule!

(Including the degenerate 13B's in the SE's. Do you have a carb in there yet Tommy?).

A guy named Rick. He just moved up from the Fort Lauderdale area in August and brought it out to meet us. He drives regularly. Rick wants to come out regularly.

Tim, you should come out and see us.

pix probably wont be til next weekend. there's 4 cars, all purchased at different times over a course of several yrs with intentions of getting them back on the road. all been stored at a friends(bill) house when he lived closer to me. now he has moved farther away and the cars r now in a garage instead of sitting outside. first is an 83 gsl, white w/red leather int but missing int pieces like door panels, center console, etc. it was running/driving many yrs ago and was used as a second car for bill and his wife, and made several trips to dgrr. sadly it sat for yrs when they no longer needed it so now probably needs rebuild due to low compression. then picked up a red w/black int 79(8/78 build date) yrs later. got it running off a gas can due to a blockage in the feed line coming out of the tank not allowing the pump to draw fuel out. sourcing a replacement(used) tank at a decent price proved to be hopeless. all tho having sat for so long now i'd bet it would still run. 85 SE, wrecked. got it for what all was still good on it. it too ran, fired it up once it came off the rollback. hasn't been run in quite some time now. next, 84 gsl black forget int color. has bridgeport 12a was told it only had 2k mile since build. was parked by PO due to wiring issues and was working on replacing wiring harness so it's a mess. by the time this one came along bill had already moved into another place and it was put into the garage and never got to see if it would run. access to this garage is off a little dead end side street. this strip of property has since been bought by bill's neighbor who has informed bill that he bought that strip of property and will be putting up a building, cutting off access to that garage. he says he wont be building til after the first of the yr so if i can't get these cars out of here by then they will be trapped.

forgot to mention, the white 83 gsl had sit for quite some time before i got it with leaky sunroof. foam under the driver's rear seat mounts held water which rusted out both rear mounts and floor under them.

white 83 gsl 1200. even tho it needs driver floor section for rear seat mounts, it's a drop in running engine and drive. it's got some suspension work done but not sure what. bill always talked about how well it handles running the dragon.

red 79 hood prop on pass side 1000. besides the tank issue, it too should be fairly easy to get back on the road.

wrecked 85 gsl-se 800. should be worth way more than that parted out.

black 84 with bridge 12a 1500.

5k would take everything and all the other parts that i have accumulated over the yrs.

with every yr that passes i realize i'll probably never do anything with all this stuff.

Michael?

How bad is the GSL-SE damaged? Where was it hit? Color (int & ext)? I'm assuming this is ~10 miles from Spartanburg?
