Hmmm, Joe ... this is not looking good ; I'd check out if amnesia or sleep-driving may be at play here <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/tongue.gif" class="smilie" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/smilies/968/rolleyes.gif" class="smilie" alt="" />

Weird..... I must be turning into my evil-self and going off on a drive without me knowing it. I'm going to check to see if my evil-self has hidden a Nevada plate underneath the bed...

It positively wasn't me although I have a triple cobalt blue cab. Maybe I need to get out more often though.

BTW, there's a guy over on Rennlist who's looking at your car with interest: Rennlist thread

Nope, too much nox and no carb cert for the rsbarn headers. I could have probably just put a bigger cat, put the stock chip and taken it to a franchise smog place and would probably pass, but I didnt want to deal with it every other year. Oh yeah the car on ebay is not mine... My baby is well cared for and is a keeper.

Not your car? Damn.... how many cobalt blue cabs are floating out there? Between yours, mine, eBay, and a guy on Rennlist, it's starting to feel like a common color....

Damn, thought it might be up for sale! [Like the Lady of the House would allow another P-Car.] But it does look like a keeper.



Hope to see you again on the I-80. My 968 is in for a new top. So I'll probably have the only green/black cab on the highway when our paths cross again.

and the car on ebay looks like a recovery as the passenger door lock diode was popped. . . along with the spoiler.
