just an update on this. went back today to give it the old eagle eye and was dissappointed as i saw a few things that i didn't notice the other day. after looking at it  i noticed the weatherstripping between the window and the top were worn. also little cosemetic things inside plus headlight doors weren't adjusted right. tires would have to be replaced soon too. what really caught my eye and gave me a bad vibe was the vin tag in the windshield had a coating of rust on it which leads me to believe that there might be more rust than you can see from the outside. so i didn't even want to get involved. but on a brighter note, i wound up buying a 1990 vette. what a honey. white w/ red leather interior and is in great shape and runs great. loved driving it also. guy  bought the car last year and he decided it wasn't for him. only thing though it has 120k miles on it but it has been kept up so i am confident it will be a wise purchase. sorry tux, guess i'll have to be a white sheep now.

Congrats on your purchase. Sounds like you have a full stable. I am only restricted by my one car garage

Scott

Good luck on the car. By the way, I hope the trip to the hospital for your wife was nothing serious.

thanks for all the thumbs up. know what you mean scott but can't you just start replacing windows on front with garage doors? seriously i would love to have a big garage for a few cars and work area too.  bry.. wife went in to be scoped from both sides. she had an accident 35 yrs ago and has quite a few problems from it. the gastro doctor here kept  telling her she couldn't take any more nexium for her stomach as according to him she was taking too much. her scopes down her throat showed she had barrett's esophogus (which is precancerous). finally went to a specialist at jefferson and he said that sometimes people need more and doubled her meds.  after a couple years he said he had to scope her out as it was overdue and when he got done he said an amazing thing. he told us her throat was normal and she does not have the barrett's anymore.  he said it was unusual for it to clear completely like it did and she told him her secret of a lot of talking with the big guy upstairs.

That big guy sure can do some amazing things sometimes...glad to hear things are ok with th' Missus!

Congrats on the new find!! Looks really sweet!

Hey Joel, does it count as two or more if I got one and sent too much dag gum money on her?!?!?! LukesVette2007-04-22 12:44:44

what a great day it was today. wasn't expecting to be able to get the 90 until tues or weds but when i got home from work found out some things went faster than expected and now it's in my driveway. will be going to motor vehicles tomorrow a.m. and get the title transferred and plates for it. most likely i will be going for a cruise in it as soon as i put the plates on it. hope i remember to get home in time to take the wife to drs appt.
