I drive my 78 NYB from Baltimore to Green Bay and back all the time. Nothing better than cruising the open road in the best engineered C-Body....Formal's.

When you see any "C" body car it is a rare occasion, but I see more Formal cars out there during my travels than anything else, that much I'll say.

Convert the Lean Burn to electronic ignition and they run great.

You don't want that one. Bring the Dak and trade for my NYBS.

Well guys I haven't heard anything from the seller so that's one nail in the coffin. Additionally, my wife's HHR has been acting up when accelerating so, I'm waiting to see how much that is going to cost ( I bet at 1k) or if we're going to just buy here a different car since this one has a 150k miles on it. So, with all that combined it's a deal fell through. But, the light at the end of the tunnel for now is my wife did say if I sold the Dakota for xxx amount I could buy a Lil Red Express so that is something since I have had regret of selling mine I'd used to own and still miss it. Plus when I met my wife we had our first date in that truck. I know where it is but, the owner is loving it too much especially after the 408 stroker motor and 360 rwhp it's putting out.

So seal the deal and get it out of there. I wouldn't say anything until I had the title and driving down the road. Cash is king. When that's exchanged THEN the deal is complete.

Told ya. Maybe next time you score something.

It's all good anyways. We'll see what happens with the options anyways. I still may end up with a C-Body but, now given the truck option at a later time I may consider that since Lil Red was a good every other day driver for the most part. Plus, I'm still waiting to see how much the wife's car is going to cost or if we should just replace it.
