molemot Posted March 5, 2006 Report Share Posted March 5, 2006 I've had mine since 1988; every time I see it I still think "WOW! It's MINE!!" The feeling doesn't go away. Even when you're laying on top of the engine with the plenum chamber denting your chest, reaching down with a socket to tighten the hose clip on the thermostat.....That was my afternoon, that was!!

Kjakk Posted March 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2006 I will get some pictures in the next few days. It was quite an experience getting the car home. I bought it in Jacksonville and drove it to NC on Saturday. I hoped to make it all daylight driving but as things go, a late start meant over 3 hours driving at night, kinda stressful. Everything went great though, now I just need a few days to let it all sink in. The car is a black, 1993.5 SE. 16,000 or so miles. It has been very well taken care of thanks to the previous owner and the guys at Knucklehead, Gene and Mike. Thanks! Chuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan Posted March 14, 2006 Report Share Posted March 14, 2006 Seen a fair few overseas SE's with UK plates on becuase of the cut out in the bumper - looks odd without it too. Very nice car - enjoy ! B) Quote facebook = [email protected] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
