    might have a 2dr later this week

    i have a good feeling on this one. found an 84(84 seems to be my year that i have the best luck with) 2DR in nh. its 2 hours from me. little bit of rust. runs, drives good.

    if i get it, it will be my winter ride. it already has snows, and i'm gonna load down the back. only thing it needs is brake lines. if its just the lines i migfht be able to get it jhome and then down to my mechanics.

    after the brake lines and inspection, this is the list of stuff being done to it

    fluids(rad, oil, diff, tranny,ps)
    plugs
    wires
    cap
    rotor

    i'm going to have my other mechanic winterize the bottom of the car as well.

        Inspect 'em first dumby, they may've been recently replaced or just in great shape.

          lol, i meant to add if they look ancient. i've decided even with the brake problems i'm going for it and i will drive it home as well. i'm going up there with two front rubber lines and lots of brake fluid. i didn't realize shifty had a blown brakeline until i came out of work one night and i had a puddle about the size of a small pond under the car and i still drove it for 3 weeks like that because i did not have any other transportation nor the money to replace the line at the time.

          i just have a real good feeling bout this car. its an 84(my birth year and Chrsitine's birth year) its a tudor, and its black.

                if I were you tho, i would get it, and not use it as a winter car.

                fix it. drive it.

                  unfortunately i have no choice in using it as a winter car. my friend's mother made him junk his xj before i could start paying on it :chainsaw:

                  my plan after i repair the brakes is to winterize the fucking thing. my mechani recently opened up a shop that specializes in undercoating and spray on bedliners. and i'm going to basically keep it clean all winter. whats in my favor is rwd is a piece of cake for me in winter. its like driving in summer(not literally but you get the idea) then next spring/summer i can work on getting another xj(my mother's just gonna love that ) but hey if they can park a fucking useless motor home in the yard i can have 4 cars. my dad is a dipshit. last week i offered him 2k at somepoint next year for the scudburban and he said no. and i found the ebay on the "other" site, so i jumped on it. i had a lead on a tudor that was practically the next town over last month and the fucker had aa disconnected phone and there was no address in the ad. stupid fucker was prob seling the car to pay the phone bill. least he coulda done was leace an address.

                  but i'm going for it. its an 84(Christine, with the exceoption of the rust-i already have the mercs good fenders off for christine- never gave me a shred of trouble even with the unholy cfi) and i will be fixing her up. just a matter of time. its balck and its a tudor. my dads uncles mechanic a couple years ago had a tudor gm asa rental vehicle while your car was being fixed. it was white with a blue interior, and thats what turned me onto tudors. i had always loved boxes but those were all 4drs. i

                  here is my plans for the fleet(assuming that i don't get outbid at the last minute :cuss: )

                  the diabolical trinity:
                  Christine-show car
                  Shifty- spring/summer dd
                  Evoken- spring summer dd

                  and another xj for camping trips and winter

                  it would kick ass to show up at stap 2k5 with the trinity :evil:

                          lol

                          in a way, i'm sorta glad. i really didn't want to drive it thru the winter and i would of have been doing just that. i just have a bad feeling tho that the car will end up in a derby :chainsaw:

                          i think for winter i'm gonna focus on another xj

                          i still hope the fucker gets a brain tumour the size of a 460

                            Yeah, It would've been in better hands, but another xj and for a winter vehicle would be for the better.

                            It all happens for a reason.

                              ya, the reason is that some one wanted the car more than you. lol! :coocoo:
