That's cool. Parts stores really need to start getting people that know about cars. My local Parts Plus has some illegal immigrant running the counter half the time, and he's fuckin asshole who doesn't know what he's doing and always tries to rip me off.

Yea, I have....
Im tired of the honda. I dont have much money to build the firebird up...and I cant afford to insure and maintain 2 cars.
I can get atleast $2000 for the honda, and about 3/4 of it is going into the car, whats left is going into the bank.

After owning them for 12 years, f-bodies are not to be relied on as daily drivers, unless you you have the time and money to keep up on them diligently. :2cents:

I have the time, and with me selling the honda ill have some money.
Like i said..I just cant afford to insure and maintain 2 cars at once on my limited budget.
