I've been looking around a bit just in case I do end up parking/selling the TA and getting something else to drive for a while. So far here are a few I've found:

'96 Formula

'89 IROC

'87 Monte Carlo SS <--- Wheels would be first thing to go.

Dreaming.

mmmmmmm.... turbo buick.

is it just me, or does the driver's door on that IROC seem a lil' misaligned. do i smell accident...?

i'd say formula.

Nice cars. I like the Monte. Are you trying to stay around $5,000??? Just lettin' ya know I got my LS1 for $8,700.00

Skurred of anything that requires clutch operation there Aggro? Steer clear of automatics man, they're lame as hell. You can definitely pick up a higher mileage 6 speed LS1 Z28 for probably even cheaper than Speedy's, Z28s are dirt cheap compared to SS's and WS6's.

Dude, if he doesn't want a stick, he doesn't want a stick. Maybe he's growing up faster than the rest of us.

And don't give me shit about having an automatic. I really, really want a stick shift to play with.

I was gonna say the IROC until I saw Panther's comment. It does look a little messed up.

Throw it all in the ring and get the Buick!

I would much prefer a manual over an auto, but there just doesn't seem to be many around here.

And yeah I'm trying to stay under $5k, lower if possible. If I do end up buying another car I don't plan on driving it for more than a couple of years.

It's all still up in the air at this point anyway.

Also, throwing around this idea as well.

Should talk to my neighbor hes got a camaro just like speedys hes trying to sell. z28 with corvette package. told me hes lookin for close to 6k.

Monte Carlo here, i just love them cars. The iroc is cool, i remember when i was younger the hot girl at the end of the street drove one. So its always stuck in my head,

Im sure you would like a nice stick to play with Kurt!LOL You left yourself open for that one.

I'd go with the IROC. No one else noticed it only has 12,500 miles?

I agree on the IROC also, baby looks great for that old though... the GN would be sweet for some ol school turbo kicks.

I didn't leave myself open for anything. I said 'stick shift.'

I noticed the IROC only had 12k miles, that's why I went for it. Low mileage FTW!

Yeah *bleep* the bike dude. All my friends have them and if it was your only vehicle you would be screwed if it's raining. You would either have to drive in the rain and get wet or just not go anywhere. I say I-Rock. Those cars are awesome. I didn't even look to see how cheap it was. If you were gonna try and stay around 6k I would say LS1. I'm gonna ask 6500 for mine when I buy my truck. You can find some decent ones for 6-7k. Have you ever found out what was wrong with the firechicken?

Well I'd still have the 'burban, but my mom would have daily heartattacks if I got a bike. Just a whim pretty much.

Anyway, we haven't had a chance to get into the snot rocket yet to see the extent of the damage what with the craziness around Christmas time and such. Probably won't know until after the new year.

My cousin did offer me the motor out of his V6 Firebird, but *bleep* that. He doesn't need it anymore seeing as how he's getting a C5 'Vette for his graduation present...bastard

Christmas craziness is a lame excuse Aggro...Invest in a 100pc tool set if you haven't already and yank the top end of the motor off in a couple hours. It's easy as pie, I'd get a 1/2 breaker bar and 9/16 or 5/8 socket for breaking the head bolts loose. Other than that, it's self explanitory, get that shit apart and see what's going on inside your motor!
