SOT: Update on my car saga (kinda long)

[DanDombrowski]

Well Tim,

I like the color (both interior and exterior). Looks like a nice car. I don't think I could ever drive a fwd slower car, but thats just me. If I were in the snow, I'd be singing a different tune.

Looks like a nice car, a nice deal, and it also sounds like you got it in un-neglected condition. Good luck with it!

Oh, and a 240 with 168HP? You must have had a turbo. A big turbo

Right you are Dan, 168 is what they get out of it now. Not like its going to win any road rally, mind you. But the wife's problem now in general.

My 240 had the round air filter on top of the carb held on with a wingnut, so you could take it off easy, spray ether down the throttle body while someone cranked it to get it to start up. And hope nothing caught fire. And it wouldn't stop either.
