Wel, as i sit here, waiting for my college to start (that is a for sure thing. The begining of the fall semester of 2007 I will be in Japan, i'll see if i can high-jack some internet usage over there to give you an update on if there is any exisitng Mopar life over there. But otherwise, its a go for college....God help anything that gets in my way LOL
)
But one thing is bothering me a bit. My friend has reasured me, no matter what, since i paid for the Neon, he's getting me the title (though still no effort on his part on getting it yet
) So, then i have a 1995 Plymouth Neon (its a Dode...i just call it a Dodge :shifty: ) with a possibly failing ATX (big suprise
), leaky gas tank, faulty fuel pump, rust hood, rusty trunk, and a few parking lot and backpack brusies. And at this current moment, doesn't start.
Or, i could go with car #2. The aformentioned Lebaron (correction, the convertible top color is black, not white), a shreaded ATX, rocker rust, a dent with some rust in it, a few tears in the leather, a whole in the top, a 2.2 Turbo :giggedy: , bad shocks (and or struts), but she runs just doesn't go anywhere due to the previously mentioned ATX.
I'm thinking of adding a plastic fuel cell into the Neon where the old tank used to be (if possible) to cut costs (since its going to be about $250 total for a replacement metal tank) and if i feel inclined, replace the atx with a manual 5spd if one can be found for a fair pirce. ATX's give me headaches, i apologize to the members who favor these transmissions, but my personal choice is to row the gears like they did in the days of yore (68R/T's 30's i beleive LOL)
Or, with the Lebaron, pop in a manual (mainly because from the information i got from 68R/T and 69.5's posts on a certain engine and transmission, it sounds like the 5spd is more stout in the first place, so, why not?), fix the top (cause rain inside a convertible when the top is up is still not cool LOL) and fix the rocker rust (come on, i like a "rust-free" vehicle, not a free-rust vehicle....i got plenty of those :doubt:
) and do a once over on the engine to make everything should be running like it should.
If i'm looking for hp, i'm almost positive that 2.2 turbo Lebaron will be me into plenty of trouble (and i've never owns a convertible, so that'd be cool), but i've already paid for the neon (in more than one way
) so i'm kinda stuck with that too, and, to be honest, when it was still running, it was kind of a fun shit beater LOL.
Any words of wisedom? Either way, the work on the vehicles won't be happening this year unless desperatly needed. Right now, my truck is my reliable sorce of transportation, but its a tired beast looking for a place to rest its head one day. And after college, i'm going to need a reliable car to run around to look for jobs :helpme:
And if i can have some fun doing it, why not? :vroom:
