Are you upgrading Steve? The newest video of your car shows that it's pretty well sorted out.

Just curious. Actually, I've been pondering jumping back into the pit so-to-speak

Did the road racing thing and was thinking about giving autocross a try

Engine fixed, or sold "as is"? Want to part anything out?

You guys are killing me with the prices. Jeeze. I've got more than that in building my C4.

Very nice car, GLWS.

Hi Stan,

It will be all fixed. Also adding new timing chain, valve springs, motor mounts and Accusump. I really want to keep it, so I will not be parting anything out.

I know what you mean. I don't want to take out a loan either. The last few months I've been hit pretty hard with Veterinary bills. Between the cost of the dog and car, it was going to put me in the red. I don't like being in the red. We'll see what happens.

How can you say "No"? Maybe I should just take up a collection for "Viggo".

Prayers for the puppy "Viggo"! Hope it all works out. Vet bills can be staggering.

Thanks. He's doing great most of the time. It's when he gets into these coughing fits that can become a life threaten situation. So my wife and I are taking shifts watching him.

Back to the car for sale. If someone buys it, then great, but in the meantime, I'm just going to keep racing it. Who knows, after a few months of absorbing all these bills, I'll just keep it.
Thanks for all your support.

Steve A.
