Hope you find something soon, bro.Of course, you could always hit up your Chatsworth buds for new career in porn if nothing else comes along. lol.
Found a job and surprisingly enough a very small pay cut, so I won't be selling for a while, thank god since the car probably would be worth less now than when I bought, oh well just happy to be working, just drove it today for the first time in a while and man was it fun

Pete no way I could work in chatsworth unless there is a nuclear facility there, ha!
Welcome back and glad you landed on your feet!! Did you ever find out the vibration issue?

#15 is going into a very reputable transmission shop tomorrow, the owner seems to think it's a clutch issue, we'll see, possibly going to be on the block, have a couple interested people and some who were but I'm just guessing aren't anymore so we'll see, job isn't going as well as I thought so I'm doing all I can to keep it but who knows

Thanks guy, willy not yet but he seems to think its something in the dif. Like the fluid or something like that, doesn't think it's a tranny or clutch issue. He's checking to see if its posi which I don't know about only that it had a gear change, he said if it is posi whoever put fluid in it put the wrong kind. He said posi needs an addititive added to it. I don't know much about it but we will see I guess. On another note all the guys down there really liked the car and even took bets on if it was real. Asked a lot of questions and really enjoyed driving it
