thanks guys im looking into the aspire brake swap then doing wheels and tires, so i dont do it twice.

And the aspire seat swap i need to find out how its done.

Anyone know why my glovebox is a fish tank? I put the title in there when i bought it and pulled it out and it was wet(its been raining). Also my sunroof leaks, im thinking i could just get some weatherstripping from auto store and put it in there?

$693 came from him wanting $850 me negotiating him to $700 and me and my friend only having $693 on me at the time(was going to offer $650 or walk). He said that will work.

That reminds me of my Mustang that I paid $747 for... My dad got $40 less out of the bank than he was supposed to, and all I had was 37 bucks...

What part of Houston are you? I am in Deer Park.

The best place I have found parts is car-parts.com and it usually brings me to Williams Auto Salvage on N. Shepard drive.

Let me know if ya need help from a local, and maybe we can get a houston area meet together.

I live in Dallas Tx not too far from you. I got the white one(my profile pic) for $200 bucks on craigslist. It needed some work(tire, breaks, battery, air filter, fuel filter, e break repair, oil change, headlights re-wired, a back window, radiator fan, thermostat, spark plugs and wires, some paint and some carb cleaner). Its a 91 5 speed and runs like a champ now. Great car for around $400 bucks. I wouldnt get an auto though. Thats the whole point in the Festive lol.
