About a month ago I was searching around on Craigslist looking for a Vmax for my wife and I ran across a post in Kentucky for one that was being parted out. I thought the phone number looked familiar, and I pm'd Texas SS Tornado here on the forum, and sure enough it was his! I asked him what was wrong with it and if he wanted to sell it outright, and he told me what was going on with it, and that he'd take $1,500 for it. I asked him if he'd mind holding for a couple of weeks so the snow around here could melt and he said sure, and I sent him a deposit. So, last Friday I drove down and picked it up, and brought her home.
Turned out there was a bunch of green gunk in the ignition switch connector, and he cleaned that up, and it's running really well here the few times I've been able to get out on it. There are a couple of other minor issues, like the fuel pump won't stop pumping when I turn the key on, and the vboost servo isn't working either but it has the tboost thing on it which will be removed pretty soon, and just needs a good detailing. I've already cleaned her up some and it's looking pretty sharp!
Dealing with John was awesome! Very nice guy to deal with and get to know a little bit, and has a very nice setup going on at his house! I've bought a number of things from John, and each time has been a perfect transaction! Thanks again John!
I'm thinking the mod monkey is doubling up on his bets over here lol!
