Apparently you don't have a will, cause with one, there would be a way to keep it. :beer:

I have a will. But only takes effect if I pass away. Then the car is paid for.

thought about a loan? got any other toys you could sell?

Heres a stupid idea, try selling wrestling figures on ebay, people will buy them for 2X to 3X the price in europe and so, my sisters fiance paid off some bills and a mortgage by doing this :eek:

Got any kids you can sell? :)

If I may ask, why did you choose Precision Industries over other manufacturers of torque converters? I am preparing to order a torque converter and valve body for my 04 Marauder. I welcome your input.

Thanks,

A lot of guys have put PI's in their Ford's and loved them (other boards too), I mean it is all personal preference if you ask me.

PI converters are pricey but you get what you pay for. They are very good with their work. Had mine restalled from 3000 to 3500. Sent it out monday via ups and had it back friday the same week. They are very nice. Plus its PURPLE like barney! LOL

Ok, Here is a dumb question. The guy that wants to purchase my car asked me how the compression is. I didnt know what to say. He then asked if he could check the compression when he gets here. I said I didnt care. But, after I hung up the phone I thought about it. I dont wanna have to dissasemble anything to sell my car and sure dont want anyone I dont know taking my car apart. I know he doesnt know me and how I treat my auto's. But I dont know him either. I was gonna call him and tell him if he wants it done (WE) can take it to a dealer and have it done but the cost will come out of his pocket. What would you do?? Advise? never thought it would come down to compression? stumped me on that one. LOL

I agree. I've never had anyone want to do that, but with 10:1 and juice can't say I blame him. It needs to go to a qualified mechanic so neither of you get screwed. And, you're right, if he wants the check, he pays.

Well, I have a very safe tune and only used 1bottle and maybe .25 of another (w/race gas mix). But some was lost while checking for leaks and such. So I havent really used it much. also, was only using the spray from 3800rpm to 5900rpm. So only 2100rpm was seeing the spray. I will call him tonight. Thank you for your input, Have a great day.

Sounds like the car will be going to New Jersery in a week or two. I am gonna be sad. The soon to be new owner is a lurker on here. Dont know his screen name but another member here showed him the pictures. I wanted to say thank you. My wife is happy. But she doesnt know I even did anything to the car since she said all I could do was tint the windows. LOL.

Hey all. I'm the "lurker"/ hopeful buyer. Just starting to figure out this site, but if all goes well, I'll be a regular around here. DWStang67 is the MM owner that showed me the posts. As for the compression, absolutely will come out of my pocket. Same as any big purchase I figure. House/car.. well within reason to make sure all is good, but you pay for the checkouts.

Glad to see ya post! I talked with Rich, the guy I told you about. He said if I pull the plugs and everything he would come over and do the compression test for a small fee. Or even if you want, I can have it done before you get here so if its not to your likeing you wouldnt have to make the trip. Its totally up to you. I wouldnt lie about somthing like that either. I can call you and post the results so the other members can chime in if they think somthing is wrong. Personally, I would do it this way because this is a really smart group of people and very very helpful. ENjoy the site, I really do.

ok, I will see if I can get it done tuesday. My daughter has surgery tomarrow so I wont be able to touch it tomarrow. Maybe tuesday depending on how she is. I will let you know.

All I can say is sabtaj1 is a real class act, selling a fine automobile like that so his wife can continue her education.

All the best to you and your family, friend. Cars come and go, but family is what it's all about. I don't know what surgery your daughter is undergoing, but please accept my very best wishes and prayers.

Be well.

Thank you. She got Tubes in her ears and her Abnoids? taken out. Not really a big deal but she is 14 months old. Pretty hard watchin a little one go through that. Everything was fine though. Thank you.

I also managed to do the compression test tonight. Every cylinder on the first cycle was between 80 and 95lbs. After 4 cycles each cylinder was between 180 and 195lbs. So she tested out fine.

Your right cars do come and go. I see another marauder in my future, well, I hope so anyways. Gonna be awhile though. Now I get to drive the beater van. But now that I wont have the marauder maybe it will make me finish puttin the wagon together. I have everything for it but just got tired of workin on it.

Well, The car is now gone and on its way to New Jersey. Sad. I miss it already. The new owner was very happy about the purchase. He made me nervous though, said he never owned a rear wheel drive car. I almost pooed my pants. he is a great guy and I got to take him out for a couple drinks the night he arrived. Very nice guy. He will be on here quite abit. WEAVER I believe is his screen name. Not really sure how to close a thread or I would close this one. Thanks to all that have helped me out with everything. I WILL BE BACK!!!!!

Ya thats what he said. I do thank you for showing him my car. But then again if you wouldnt have I would still have her. He said he was going to park right next to you too. LOL. Thank you very much.
