Just to let you know I just got a new job!! It's just a five month contract job for CSC ( Computer Sciences Corp ) doing Java work. No benefits, but it's a W-2 job (vs 1099) and 20% more money than my old job. And better yet, I get paid for every hour I work (vs being salary and not getting paid for hours over 40 per week)!! Looks like it's going to be a VERY Merry Christmas at my house!

The car belongs to my daughter and she really does not want to give it up. Can't blame her, the few times I was allowed to drive it, I fell in love with the way it handled. Thanks.
if you not in a next day hurry , i can look at it for ya , I live in yourktown area and will take good care of ya

Yoshi, Congrats on the new job. Benefits are a big deal, hope it leads to more good things for you.

I have posted the next meet for us. Some of the times might change depending on the hours at AIK. Rumor is they are chaninging hours. They have changed the track so it will be new for all of us.

He guys. I'm (still) trying to sell an engine, transmission, and a GSL-SE suspension. Shocks/springs not included.

Engine: 12a. Rebuilt and streetported with about 1k miles on it. $800

Transmission: Off an 85 GS. Works to my knowledge just fine. $50

Suspension: Rear axle has had the oil seals and bearings on the axle replaced. Turned discs, new pads. Diff. is currently out of the axle, needs to be set up properly. Fronts Need new pads/turned rotors. $250

Don't mean to blow up the board, just trying to get these things off my hands. PM me or e-mail rowelljl@vcu.edu.
