Doesn't look too bad, if you are into those little rascals!

Yup thats the same 2dr we have posted here twice before. Guy is having trouble selling it. Shame these cars do not sell unless they go cheap.

Sorry, no skirts, no deal. I say the seller should take the highest bid and run with it. Besides, it's too much culture shock for me. Sort of like being a Cadillac guy and being asked to drive a Cimarron.

If the price was right, I'd drive the durned thing. Condition wise, it looks pretty good. It's a shame he is holding out for Barrett-Jackson prices. That should be out buzzing around daily. That's not too bad a contour, you could knock out a decent set of skirts in a weekend Dave.....

I got two and now getting a third to build my rally car.

That is getting stripped down though. I need to lower the suspension about 2 inches and beef it up. I am stripping everything out of it and will rebuild it from scratch. Putting in a roll bar racing seats and am looking at what engine option to use.

I will see how much horsepower I can pull from the 202 after I massage it a little and use the Twin H. I am looking at different tranny options may just go with a 700R with a shift kit. I have to look at how I rebuild the bottom end as I will be entering a 6 day rally so the car is going to take a lot of shit and abuse so I want to keep the drivetrain as simple and as Hudson as I can.

If the 202 does not do it I may drop a 262 in there and stroke it to rev. Haven't quite made up my mind yet but it will be Hudson all the way. I have to go 12 volt as I have to wire in a com system and trip computer.

Going to be fun and I am lucky my company is a sponsor ...oh wait I own my company no wonder. I will be trying to get Quaker State, Bridgestone and Victoria Secret as sponsors if you have to ask about the last one you don't get it.

Now's your chance to shine and redesign that gigantically tall greenhouse.

Hmmm, all Hudson you say...700R trans? Confused

Victoria's Secret...Sean likes the feeling of silk against his bottom. Laughing

Yup gonna need a tranny option I can tune so Hydra is out as can't put a shift kit in that and work out the best shift options. I am fine on the tranny as the Hydra was not a Hudson unit either. Engine will be Hudson and gosh darn it my spirit will be Hudson all the way.

When we go Dave you have to block off that week to be down there with us as crew chief.

Dave53-7C

OK, as long as you use a trans with some heritage behind it.

As crew chief, I'll have to get some vinyl race car stickers and a big headset for my Broadway Blue Behemoth.

This car is back and at $4500 BIN for a 2dr is a good buy. Rebuilt engine, newer interior and paint. Bit of work and a solid daily driver that is economical.

Seeing this price you can see why all the other Jets did not sell.

Nobody loves the poor, little Jet. Sad
