I think that the car Gronk picked up is the one we traded messages about that was on the Denver C-List, in Aurora,with the bad front seats.

That's the one.  Denver CL in Aurora.  VERY bad front seats.....  It was a good price and I'm glad to have it.

Stalled on heavy stops and leaks a little from tranny.  I'll get her cleaned up in a couple of weeks and dig in to the project then.  Needs springs and shocks too.  Overall, ran good.   I'm happy.

now if only Ginger was a limited like ours then we really and you both had driving lights then we would really match.

Are we the Jets or the Sharks?  One thing I forgot to look at or take a pic of before leaving Bucket in Westminster was the original Dealer Tag. 

Once the gangs all rollin' I'm all for meeting up and doing a cruise of sorts.

Do any of you guys go to the Tri-State Aoto Meet?  I'm there every year and this year (Feb 2012) I plan on using my Eagle for teh parts hauler.  I just bought a smaller enclosed trailer to pull behind her.  Having the Class III hitch receiver is awesome.

It may work out where I have 4 wags very soon.

That would allow me to keep this one mostly stock and play with the others.
