31764, I sold Barney Puple
Posted by Malenko, Feb-25-08 02:38 AM
my first 2G is gone.

I sold my Turbo kit and built engine to Red96RS (steve) and now the car went to his friend Bryan. They got here late last Friday night and were gone by Saturday (actually before I got home from work) but he msg'ed me and let me know Barney made the trip fine and its all good.

I let her go for 2 grand because she's not getting parted out and will be Bryan's new DD. No, he doesn't have to call her Barney Purple any more :p



I miss her already =(

May you be struck down with a mighty wind!

...

And may your car be stricken with crankwalk!

Shame to wish this upon a fellow DSM'er! :nono

The only way it would be acceptable is if the mighty wind were in fact blown from another DSM'ers ass and some hilairity involving an open flame occured.

Sad to see you sell the 2GNT since you've been so prominent in this community, but I am happy for your recent financial boost.

Dude. Seriously. It's not cool to EVER mess with another man's car, so why would you wish another DSMer crankwalk? For shame. :nono

Now, posting something like this is totally appropriate, imo. In fact, one might argue it's tradition. :p

He made a vow to P75 back in the day.

Thom knows I'm not serious.

Dude, I love my new car. I will get over the fact that it is automatic. Barney runs and drives great, and looks good doin it. That was the longest road trip ever, but in the end, it was worth it. Thanks Thom, you gave me a hell of a deal.

You guys need to sit back and think for a minute. Thom couldnt work on a 420a...what makes you think this 4g63 is going to last long? He will be back to looking at a car sit all summer in no time. No need to wish the inevitable.

Well, at least you kept the new owner in tune with the boards. And yeah, any newer pics of the X?

I'm not sad for ya.

6 bolt 4g63t + awd = win.

Better platform.

Better engine.

Inexpensive aftermarket go-fast parts, unlike the 2gnt where everything costs an arm and a leg.....


Have fun and dont bang up that pretty car.
