My money is tied up because of the stupid loan payoff process, and this shows up. DAMMIT.

It’s carbureted! How many 1994 models were there that were still carbureted? I genuinely have no idea.

ONLY 100k!

There’s no way this will still be around when I have the $$ in hand. ARGH!

only a 4zd1 motor though, if it was a  4ze1 it’d be worth it

Wow, they're still jerking you around???

I wouldn’t necessarily say they’re jerking me around, it’s just a bit like watching paint dry . It’s all happening, but really slowly. The CU warned me the gap coverage payment process can take a while.

I’ve always wanted an Isuzu truck though. Also, maybe I could swap in the 3.2 V6 from the Rodeo/Trooper ...

yes the  6VD1 swap would be worth it

It looks like your automotive ADD is on par with my own. Last I saw you were looking at fully loaded grandpamobiles and now we’re onto bare bones mini trucks.

This is an observation and not a critique.

My two latest Craigslist searches were pre-1980 Imperials and seeing if there were any Crosleys or King Midgets available locally.

That is 100 % correct. When it comes to car shopping I’m wildly bi-polar.

Here’s a Crosley I spotted at a car wash a few years back.  I’d never seen one before or even heard of them.

Crosleys were built about an hour from me, and they used to have an annual get together at a little league field outside of Cincinnati.

They were built by the same man that owned the Crosley radio and appliance business. He also used to own the Cincinnati reds.

What I really want is one of the factory supercharged Super Sport , but the estimate is that  less than 100 were built.

Is it sad that I miss that dash? Had a 94 Rodeo for awhile, I LOVED those big chunky buttons on the sides of the ga ug e cluster.

Dammit, off to craigslist...

I had a couple Chevy Sprints that had those kind of chunky buttons on the dash binnacle. It's definitely an 80s relic.
