This MKII is nice. It was the type I really thought about getting before I "settled" (haha) on my MKIII, and this looks like a damn fine car for $1500.

:cry:

Why don't you want to buy it?

It's not a question of not wanting to buy it.... it's a question of how long will I get to live to enjoy it before my wife kills me and dismembers my body for buying another sports car. She's already jealous of my baby MKIII, despite the love and affection I shower on her (my wife, of course!!).

Ohh well, Supracentral had the right idea. If there was oil burning in a cylinder, probably a few other issues somewhere in the motor...

Hope she finds a good home... (listen to me, I'm starting to sound like these cars are frickin' PETS.... :3d_frown: )

Looks very nice!!!! I just went to a meet and saw one that was restored and it was beautiful. That one looks very nice. Won't hurt to go look at it.

West End is Glen Allen, VA. And my wife told me just now if I buy another "toy", she will eviserate me and splay me out on the porch for the ravens to enjoy. Lovely image, neh?

Ohh, and my wife used to wrestle for GLOW... she can do it... :1zhelp:

Look up Gremlina GLOW on Facebook.

If it truly is RUST FREE (which I doubt) it's basically worth $1500 even if the engine was blown, since rust free shells are hard as fuck to come by, especially on east coast.

It's not difficult to swap a 5 speed in there, or rebuild the engine. I've done both. Turned my 5MGE failbox mk2 into a 6MGE 5 speed easily :)
