Default Can you be happy and sad at the same time?

Well the time is getting closer when the BLACK94SSEi will be parting ways. I cant help but feel sad because this car has been a part of my life for the last 11 months.

On the other hand, I also feel happy.

Not only happy since purchasing the 97, but happy that I can pass my 94 into the family.

Tonight, the 94 has officially been sold. The title is now signed and ownership has been transfered.

I know that when the time comes, the 94 will be getting a rebuilt tranny (The same guy I would have gone to) and we'll meet for pics and maybe he will even come to some meets, to see how awesome you guys are!!!

A part of me will allways miss it, as it was my very first Bonneville as well as the start of something here that I have never thought Inimaginable.

Earlier tonight, Boosty'* on the phone, already offering up his time, his home and his knowledge to help another member. What an amazing place.

I know im going on and may seem to be babbling, but Im just happy and sad at the same time.............

My brother is already a member. I think he forgot his screen name and log in though. GMtech or something like that. Im not sure, but hopefully he will join in on the fun we have here.


Bill, your offering because your just that type of guy who gives unselfishly. Your knowledge, your expeirience, I look up to that. Wether you realize it or not, you have taught me allot, and I was willing to learn.

I had no F'n clue what I was doing under that hood, but I got through it thanks to you!!

And yeah, Saturday is going to be awesome!! Hope you know though that since funds are limited, I wont be doing much in the way upgrades/mods just yet. Hoping to do lots of talking, drinking, and planning

Thanks Bill. And yes, I will miss her, and yes its now a rare 94 with the ported intake. its a sleeper in that regards I wish I got more done on her but now im onto bigger and better things.

The cool thing is, my brother is very excited to get into the 94. I told him though, nothing but premium and Syntec or I'll kick his arse!!! lol.

I know. I take one look at his 98 Regency and I cringe at how poorly he has taken care of it. The engine bay is a mess and rust is eating it away
