Very welcome Pete.

Did you keep your original rims from the 94?

Yeah, I kept the crosslace rims. I'll probably switch those back tomorrow.

I think I'm gonna buy 6 pucks and two bolts.. hand a set to the two P'*...Pat and Pete.

I asked Pete if he ever saw the amount of movement on an 00+ and he hadn't. I showed him with a weak 1500 rpm blip.

<~~~~ Pete'* face.

He couldn't believe that the motor is barely held in there and flops around like a fish looking for water in Arizona.

Is how they got the low trade in value from you... They saw you were in love with the 03, and doesn't look like you had any blue book values with you.

Hope it all works well! Looks pretty clean.

Congrats on the car. Probably could have gotten you more than that for the Sebring down here, but then again, you don't have to pay tax on the value of the trade in I guess.

Can't wait to see the car and get a ride in it.
