Default I'm torn... but have found an answer...

I have a chance to pick up a 98 blue r/t clone for 1000 bucks... and she will take payments...

I can think of a few things I could do...

1) just pay her 100 bucks every paycheck for 5 months...

2) Sell all my performance stuff... ie AMM manifold, mp pcm all that stuff... and then buy it...

3) Work a deal out where I would be able to swap all my ACR parts out to the other car and return my ACR to a stock status and sell the ACR...

I'm just having to many problems with the ACR... the previous owner swapped out the radiator support and did a ****ty job doing it and now i have about 140 rivits and about 15 grade 8 bolts holding it together... and when I get around to getting into boost I dont think the radiator support will live threw it... I dont know... What do you guys think I should do...

And by a rt clone i mean someone stripped a highline and put the r/t badges on the side... but damn good looking car... lol it used to be the cops DARE car and she bought it at the police auction. lol oh and its a damn atx so I guess I will have to do a mtx swap from the ACR... and the rear disc brakes swap damn there went my summer...

Ok got it all figured out...

I am getting the "clone" RT for 1000 bucks 56,000 cop driven miles...

I found a guy that will buy my car compleatly stripped of all my goodies and ACR parts ie... koni's swaybars... All he will be getting is the stock sohc no amm manifold no mp pcm just a plastic manifold and a wai i have laying around...

He doesent get the system or Racing seat nothing just a stock sohc with stock everything... for 700 bucks... rhino lining and all... lol

Plus he will give me the MTX swap with another MTX transmission. god i need to get rid of one... lol that will make 3... lol Oh and he will even help me swap everything over...lol

Then I'm going to sell my 300 lbs system for 350 or so and the car will be paid for.... lol

I drove it tonight and even with the atx it gets up and goes... had to put it in 1st then 2nd manualy to get it to go quick... damn atx...but it went... lol

It can't be a clone if it has an ATX
