My 91 has succomb to rotten body and everything worn out syndrom. Saturday it begins the parting out phase of its life. If anyone in the wisconsin area needs anything let me know. my 88tc is up for grabs, and will be parted in the next 2 weeks if no one wants it whole. The 91 will have over 201,000 miles and I will be doing an autopsy on the motor to see whats left. It still has the original clutch even though the tranny has been redone a few times. Tough little car, rust in peace. Later, Dan

If the TC leaves in pieces.... Ill take the Rear Axle and Brakes. Are you going to use the motor for the 89? Or have you abandoned the turbo project? My motor is getting disassembled in the next week or so that motor i got from you ALONG time ago may finally get the overhaul it needs. Sorry to hear the 91 has finally died, but i guess its been along time coming. let me know what your plans are for the Turbocoupe. I cant afford to have another car but the rear axle would be nice to have. If you wanna help rebuild a Tc Motor let me know. :D

I still have the 89, a tc block half finished,and mounds of parts, I hope to build that one over winter. I haven't got much more done on my 32 since you saw it(sent it off to a barn for storage a year ago and its gettin lonely), so I gotta bail some of this other project material. The 88 will go out at $400 complete, or email me with specific parts requests.([email protected]). Dr.El. as you know, crating is still free :D
 
It knows the time to put on the performance of its life is now or never, so leaving work thurs night, I cut her loose on the rev limiter and pulled a clean one legger through 2nd covering 2 city blocks till she was 1 to 1 on the limiter in second. This from a motor that takes 1 mile to stop fogging the neighbors. anyhow, the chassis is soft and I gotta put her down before it hurts me. So at 201,200 miles, with a tear in my eye, I lay to rest a friend who has been with me since 93. Even after a few trans repairs, it still has the original clutch and pressure plate. I suppose if I'd a used the clutch a lil more, maybe the trannies woulda lived longer :shrug: Upward and onward with the Phoenix (reborn from the shelves of lowell engineering :D ) Later, Dan
