23660, I've made my decision, Talon is leaving. Posted by 95_ESi_Person, Apr-30-07 05:37 AM
I want to thank all of you for all of your help and support with my car. I will miss her, but I've always told myself that she'd be gone in a heartbeat if I found a certain car... Now that car is winning me over more and more, and I'm seeking it now.
After years of my love affair with my car, I've come to the conclusion that it's just not for me anymore. I want power and speed.
I'm looking to sell the Talon, and find a cheap mid-80s Regal/Cutlass (Hopefully Regal).
I'm going tomorrow to check out a Buick Grand National and a Regal T-Type.
I don't care if either of these cars run, as long as the frame is straight and the body is in good condition. My love of the Buick far outweighs my love of the Talon. The Talon is sexy and all, but I want a RWD powerhouse.
If anybody knows of a G-Body GM for a low price please let me know.
Dino, if you are reading this.... I will still make the Wiki-How on replacing one of the front hubs before she goes. I said I would, and I still will.

yum. Love those cars. Pretty expensive if you get a clean/low mileage one. Even high mileage ones go for 7-10 grand still. I don't really "look hard" for them though.

Don't care about mileage, don't care if it runs. I want a project with a good body, a rolling body is good enough for me. I can tow it back here if need be.

sorry to hear you're leaving the 2gnt game, but good luck with the new venture. Turbo + rwd + 6cyl = coolness

Grand National = tits
Good luck. I understand you selling your ride. I've done the same as you.
Roller coastered between selling and keeping for a while now. I just want a truck.
