You are getting some GOOD advice here. As in save up and STAY OUT OF DEBT! One paycheck can buy you a car that runs OK.

THANK YOU, and you are right on the money with your comment. Added to this is that life is short, and for some of us shorter than most. I showed Sherri this ad, and she likes it if I could paint it Blue. I will contact this guy and see how fast he needs the cash. Much appreciated! PS The guy who was ready to trade me his '66 Mustang ran it past his wife, and now SHE wants him to fix up the Mustang for her. Outside of that, her was ready to go on the deal. Something will come along, I am sure.

Sherri and I are completely unified in our total hatred of mini vans and cube shaped auto's or van thingy's! <G> One of many reasons why we are such a great match up.
She just told me that she has her heart set on an early 70's Nova Coupe, so I am going to try to find one with a wore out and tired 307 V-8 and get that motor re bored and re stroked to a 383 (350 bore, 400ci small block cranksaft hybrid) Mild shift kit in the trans, a few discount house parts from Edelbrock and such, some sky blue metallic paint then it is OFF to the races for Asphalt Angel!
Probably going to have to sell the quad and a couple of nice rifles for cash first, as was suggested here. Thought I would toss out the trade idea first and see what appeared. Nearly snagged her a nice '66 Mustang with a 2bbl 289 (Easy to hop that one up, too) as a trade if the owners wife had not interviened.

The guy must be devastated.

Nah, just a little disappointed and not looking forward to having to wrench on this project now in addition to his farming work etc.
I was a touch disappointed, but n o longer now that I know my sweetie is really set on a Nova. Lots of them around, most have some sort of a V-8, so this should not be hard to accomplish.

Makaira,
That one would be PERFECT, but I am afraid that as perfect as it is, too steep and too rich for our budget at this time. Man, if I could get it for my sweetie, I surely would. Being in Calif, probably not a rifle looney. I might try him, though, and see.
THANKS! At least this thread is on the right track now, with real ideas, suggestions and help.
RE someone's comment that material things don't add up to showing Love. Well, IMO, When added to other things, and done in the right spirit and with real sacrifice involved from the giving party, sometimes they can, indeed say "I love you" in a powerful way. Especially when that 'material thing' is going to give the two of you another thing to do together that you both enjoy.

You know you are truly in love when you agree on a mutual hatred for mini vans and cubed shaped thingy's. Deep stuff................

Mark, you really should sit, think, pray and prioritize. Financial and health difficult times are not the time to pick up a new (expensive) hobby. Holy fugg, that's a gem too coming from a SM protege!
