              Thanx for the welcomes guys. Before I get to the silly questions I want to read the tech articles and see if I can fix them myself. This little thing doesn't have much wrong with it. From what I have been reading, I guess I got a steal of a deal. I picked this little 93 up from the original owner with 105,000 miles on it. She got her a new car because she didn't want to keep driving her grand kids around in it. It has brand new tires(less than 20 miles on them), entire new exhaust from the manifold back(midas,got paper work on it and it hasn't even started to rust),always had it serviced at Ford. It does need a drivers half shaft and a few other little odd and ends(dome light etc..). Are you ready for the price...a cool 250.00 bucks! I don't see me changing much because it is just a little work car(hope for good mpg).

                  Not likely, this is only my second FWD car and I swore I would never own another :? My first was a 92 SHO,also had a 93 Lightning with NOS, 94 cobra with whipple supercharger,93 Mark VIII that I modded some(13.9s on street tires all motor! :twisted: ) and a slew of other fords. My current ride is a 99 wrangler, besides the festy. I like to do all the work myself on my cars, so I ask alot of questions. I hope with the money I save on gas I can get a new Challenger in a couple of years.
