Nah, just idle BS, he loves it too much.
Maybe sell it in a few weeks.
Maybe sell it next month.
Pay someone to haul it away.
Thad has been squalking for months about selling his turbo 540.
Will he really sell it and when?
1) Nah, just idle BS, he loves the car too much to sell it.
2) Maybe sell it in a few week.
3) Maybe sell it next month.
4) Pay someone to haul it away.

5) Loan it out to BFc members for $9.99/day.
Thanks for this Jim!! Gave me a great laugh.
And maybe the funniest part to me is that I couldn't even choose which way to vote!
I've been laughing with/at Thad about this for months! Great poll. Of course I hope he keeps it so I can keep him with us here and bounce crap about cars with offline.

Thad, I think these guys might be interested, they need some turbo parts to get their ride spinning again.

Is that the sport? Or the Z Sport edition?

BBQ?? Of course they like BBQ, it's probably what keeps them coming around to them there parts. Man, I'm hungry all of the sudden! Lol
Robert, CLASSIC post! But the dogvan definitely doesn't need any relief. It's a tow BEAST!
While I am disappointed by the lackluster ratio of votes/views, I am extremely amused by the votes that predict I will pay someone to haul it away! Well done sirs!
Ok, well here is one more! I say (1)!
Also another vote for making it an awesome drift car hauler!
With over 300 views you'd think more would have voted. A simple click is all it takes, come on peeps do some voting before this poll closes.
Snotty, it's just a plain old sport model otherwise it would have been lowered, have fancy landing pads and of course a souped up flux capacitor.
If the manifolds were for a RHD I'd make you a genuine offer to part out the car haha
