Missing the Four

[Mr E]

This Chevvy I'm driving over here is not good you know.

3400cc V6 driving the front wheels through the auto slush box.

OMG! that's big for a front wheeler,isn't the max limit for fwd something like 225 bhp?-but not in the US.I fail to comprehend why a 3.4ltr V6 couldn't be developed without the driving experience in mind.

Don't worry about the 4,my informants tell me she's having quite time at home & not been running around whilst you're away

This is the land of the free mate. And the land of Californian emissions laws. You really think a socking great V6 gets any sort of power over here? They struggle to get 300bhp out of 5 litre V8s.

This thing has 180 brake at most I think.

Far from it. She currently has no transmission. 3rd attempt at the clutch change while I'm away....

Still not done. Clutch still in box in living room. ABS light still on.

Brakes feel soft too, but that might just be me used to a horrifically over assisted hire car for 3 weeks or so. They still stop the car pretty effectively.

Sigh.

This car will be finished at some point. Promise.

Sell it? After the time and effort I've spent getting it *right*.

Hell no.

Get an FD as well, then you're talking.
