Reading the Teresa eBay warning thread, I noticed how sweet Mikey Mike's Coupe looks and that it has the little flipper bill spoiler on the back, I would like to track one down for my 81 Coupe before we get it painted, anyone have one they wil pt with? let me know and how much.......you'll have to mail it to zip code 43302, Ohio USA
Also posted this due to lack of threads this week and being a shut-in for the most part, plus suffering from severe cabin fever as winter is kicking hard latelywhile it fights the moving in of spring, ya guys are boring me tremendously! I need more Beta discusion to keep sane! LOL
Off topic, just cause I am so dang bored, wife brought our beautiful Jeep Grand Cherokee home last week saying it had a squeal like a bad belt, after a quick start up and panic shut down, I informed her it wasn't the belts, but the squeal of bad rod and/or main bearings, (something spun, it's slappin hard), so we have been going thru the hassel of trying to find/deal on/ buy a reasonable replacement.......decisions like do we keep standing here and wade through all this salesmans BS, do we pay cash for a car we can afford out of pocket with a $3 or $4K car and go on without payments but with a car that will need things from time to time, (have a like new but 130K mile Prisum, same as Corolla, lined up for $2700 if we want it), or buy this used 02 extended cab and loaded Dodge Dakota another friend with a car lot has for $9800 out the door, (we really loved our 99 Dakota exactly like it only color), and borrow a little for two years, or go all out and get the new Ford Fusion with full warranty and be strapped in payments..........I am leaning very, very hard towards the Dakoa as it is like new inside and out, only 67K miles and I could really use a pickup with "This Old House", Beta ownership and all, I have been paying Carter Lumber, Menards and Lowes a lot in delivery fees over this winter I tell ya! I think the savings there would almost make the monthly payments! LOL
