Hi all, it's been awhile since I've posted. Spring is coming and it's almost
time to resume working on car projects!

Restoring my 5-speed that caught fire has proven to be an overwhelming task.
I spent all last summer sourcing parts cars, replacing parts, painting, and
rewiring everything. It runs/moves but there's still a huge amount of work
to be done before it can be deemed "road worthy."

Last 3 years, in a nutshell:

Despite my work, there's electrical issues galore (no voltage between
ignition switch and starter solenoid, anitlock pump continuously running,
etc.), it needs a windshield, tires, paint job (currently a 4 color car),
lost all sound proofing, none of the front end body panels fit right...list
goes on and on.

Basically, despite being an original 5-speed, it's not worth my time because
it will never be "perfect" again.

SOO...(finally the main point of this post)...I'm in the market for another
one!

Looking for a factory-intact '93. This '93 will receive the entire
drivetrain, suspension, and engine from the 5-speed.

If anyone comes across one for sale, if you'd forward it my way that would
be much appreciated. Eastern seaboard is preferred, and I'll be looking to
actually purchase around April or May.

tl;dr owned 3 v8s looking to purchase a 4th

Thanks!
Sam
