Probably not.
As it turns out the car may be getting parted.... my 3 year old just lost the only key that exists for it in the yard somewhere....

I'm gonna have to get a magnet and scour the backyard. I suppose I could always have a locksmith make a new one if nothing else... I'll give you a call in a few minutes, Justin.
I just need the money too bad to start messing with the car. I have a feeling that I'll either have another one in a couple weeks, or this will be the end of DSM's for me. I guess we'll find out.

Leaks are typical DSM stuff... valve cover, oil feed line, oil filter housing...
I've got someone coming tonight to look, if he doesn't take it, anyone else who's interested should PM me to set up a time to come look at it and for directions. I'm located near Metamora (about 20 min east of Peoria). Rob -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....

Car is still here... PM me to set up a time to come look.
Car seems to have a low-mid throttle miss... not sure of the problem, but the car will be sold as-is. -------------------- The fastest car I own is a minivan....

Quick compression test revealed 140-130-90-120 (from #4 to #1). Don't know if this is causing the miss, but the motor definately will need a rebuild in the near future. Still looking for a buyer... anyone interested, PM me ASAP, otherwise it looks like I'll be sending another DSM to it's death.

If I don't have any takers by this weekend, I'm going to start tearing into her. PM me if anyone needs parts.... Chassis will be available for FREE once I'm done raping it. Delivery available for a fee on the chassis.
