Can't say I'm surprised but sad to see her come apart. Think this is the easiest route to selling though in this economy.

No real plans to sell it now since I minimized the bits I took off since I had to buy replacements for some of the items I didn't have (and there wasn't a donor car for swap). The car is now one that I'll drive from time to time as will the wife and kids.

See above so... probably going to sit in the garage for me to admire and remember the good old days.

I tell you what it is really nice and quiet and still an amazing car after 9 years. I still love driving it.

I tell you I will store the parts under my hood for you and we can be the first to push the 3gen GS and you can still be a legend around here. HAHA!

I think we should work something out since I dont need most of the stuff anyway you can keep the other stuff and call it a day and start to work on that nice ISF

You know me. The grumpy old guy that would rather let it sit in his garage than "give" it away!

Wow sad to see this happen, but if you'd sell it I can make a good home for it in my LS430

Wow, this is shocking. One of the O.G F/I cars. Amazing to hear how trouble free it was!
