Why can't you make a cable? Or is it 'I don't want to be bothered trying to make a cable?" You talkin' to me? I am probably the least mechanically inclined person who posts to this board. Plus, the Jeepster is in Cheyenne and I'm 150 miles away. The idea is to sell it to someone as-is - a restoration that was interrupted by illness.

Replying to: tjc78 (Nov 07, 2008 5:14 am) Having a ton of brochures, in brochure photos you'd notice that in compact cars, they move the front seats all the way back, to show how much room is in the front. For a rear seats photo of the same car, they move those front seats all the way forward, to show the amount of room in the back seat. This guy just forgot to move them forward a bit when taking the photos.

Replying to: boomchek (Nov 07, 2008 9:59 am) These cars were designed with a lot more room up front than behind, too. However, with the seat all the way back in one of those things, a 7 footer could probably drive it OK, so someone of average size would never have it back so far. That car is probably marginally larger than my fintail, and the fintail has a bit more legroom with the seat at a normal position. I used to cram 3-4 other guys in the car now and then when I used it as my everyday car in school, and everyone fit just fine. |

BOXSTER -- very reliable car as a rule, yes. GREAT gas mileage, too.

A friend for Andre's NYers Why spend 11K on a 116 when this photogenic old beast is still available "exact replica"...maybe to a 5 year old. Is that truck wearing British plates? Nothing could go wrong here I bet this handles nicely

Replying to: fintail (Nov 07, 2008 10:08 am) The exact replica.... nice gaps in the wheel wells. Looks like it's meant for offroading. The Bi Turbo looks super clean. The Chevy on 24s.... at least the guy has a more realistic price than one we saw listed for $10k a few months ago. |
