Well, when your SO starts to question your "expensive" '74, ask her how
much a 5 year old Saturn sc2 will be worth, subtract that value from the
new price, and divide the result by 5 to get the cost per year to
drive her Saturn... I'm guessing about 2 to 3 thousand per year.
Imagine spending that kind of money on your "B" EACH YEAR for 5 years!!
Sure would buy a LOT of nice parts for yer "B"; like a new
cross flow head, rim-flow valves, coil over tube shock
conversion, electronic ignition, 2 litre conversion, new Perelli
tyres, stainless steel exhaust with a Borla stainless muffler, leather
interior, Hella (or equivalent) headlight conversion, wire wheels, and
last but not least, a nice laquer paint job!! And how about a little
blower to give you a little more grunt in 4th over?
