    Yeah. He had eased my concerns about the 99-00 NBs and the thrust bearing failure.

    Much appreciated! I sold this car to close friend of mine. It now resides in Atlanta and the new owner is making it even better and absolutely loves it. High praise coming from him, he has owned a few of these over the years and this one is his favorite.

    Not likely. I have an NB and and the e30 is coming soon. I do have an NA chumpcar in the works, though.


    the JICs are amazing at the track. A little stiff for everyday, but I liked them very much!

    Great read. I love stories about how someone's car affected their life. Much more entertaining then just a build thread.You are now one of my favorite people I've never met.

    Owning one (of more) of these little cars has changed a lot of our lives. I've "met" a lot of good people.

    Just an update... I sold this car to a close friend of mine in Atlanta. He absolutely loves the car and tracks it as often as he can. Here are the last few pictures I have before it traded hands, they are taken from Deal's Gap, 2013:















    It is quite possible I may be reunited with this car in the future. I am glad it went to a good home and the owner loves it as much if not more than I did.

    Did I miss something regarding the seats? Are those Lotus seats in the sold pics?

    It happened.

    I bought the car back this week. I am grateful to my friend for buying it off me not only to enjoy for himself, but for having the foresight to know I would regret letting it go.

    For now, I am just happy to look at it and enjoy it. The time away has helped and I see where I can still enjoy it. I have also started a small running list of things to accomplish, most are small, but some are large and will happen soon!


    Soon.
