hi,

I am bringing the 91to a dealership this week. The motor was smoking from
both sides, I couldn't see if it was covers or heaedgaskets. There was fluid
coming from the rear pipes. There was a noise coming from the bellhousing (The
tranny was totally rebuilt by a shop in Jersey for $2,200.00)
There was a noise coming from either the alternator or the water pump.
This car does have a slip switch that mine doesn't have. Does it make a
difference?
My car has been dealer service and corrected for the past 3 years. This car
is a stranger. It was also hit by the drivers side rear wheel, not a great job.
Can still see waves.
Car does seem to idle nice. I didn't drive it. It looked like it sat
straight./Everything worked. A/C was cold. Black on Black $5,500.00 I will either keep
mine or sell it for $6,000.00 even though I put a few grand into it. I would
love to keep it. Pull the heads and make it run on regular.
Any thoughts?
I love the breed.

Jack
