I paid $660 to get the black car from Californee to Tejas, so I'd say that's not a bad deal.
And I have money that says Noobz is referring to a rubber fist.

I decided to resurrect this dead thread,.... as through my actions of late,...I have revived the project.
For the first time ever,... I'm buying a car sight unseen,.... and having it shipped. The car is in Bumphuck , Arizona. Almost 1600 miles away. I cannot fly there and drive it back for less than I have contracted a carrier to bring it to me (615.00). Unlike the other car,... which turned out to be rusty,.... This car isn't,... is very straight,and most importantly,... is a color other than baby blue. After shipping, it will be similarly priced at(2150.0).
I may be asking a stupid question, but WHAT did you buy? Is it a Zepher, Fairmont, or a You Go (as fast as you pedal)?
AWESOME vision!
A crazy thought, have you thought of turbo charging the straight 6? I know the Ch**y will out do a turbo 6 without major boost. But for unique points, it would score big. And I am not sure you can kill a straight 6 unless you go overboard on the revs and NEVER change the 0il.
When I saw that had a six, first thing that through my mind was turbo six. Mike, you say you like having something different. A 300 with a turbo in a fairmont set up as road racer would fill that bill quite well.

They've got a point, ya know. And those $300 eBay turbos have been getting good reviews. You could whip up a complete system for well under a grand.
Sure, it's foreign Aussie stuff and their turbos probably spin the wrong way, but his header is made of pure badass-ness. And then the intake is nothing short of art.

Might help fuel the fire?
You gotta look at the head Nik. Even after I mill the old junk off, and give myself a decent pathway for the intake to get in, and the exhaust to get out, it's still pitiful. That, coupled to the fact that it, (the rotating assy) was never designed to see anywhere near the power that a turbocharged combo would subject it to,.. is why I'm being conservative in my power goals.Mike, are you talking 3 hundy HP with or without a turbo? Because, if you're aiming for 300 from a turbo'd 250 ci straight six, don't tell any Supra owners. They'll laugh you off the street! If you're talking 300 from an NA sixer, that's a much more honorable goal.
It does? Looks like it weighs 5000 lbs.
