Ah, Stealth drilled gold tubs. Hey, if you want to trade one of those for a pre-Stealth gold tub with a few very minor scratches, let me know. I can't find it in my heart to drill (molest) a pre-stealth gold tub, and I really want to put together a gold tub Stealth.
So I got all this stuff on ebay that was dyed pink, I was hoping the bidding would stay low because of all of it's pinkness.....and it worked, I got it for a decent price.

Hobbes, we can talk if you want....most of the pink stuff isn't what I was looking for (minus the stealth trans), shoot me a PM if you want....

Thanks for the info JK. I'll look into it Bro. Hope you have a safe and Happy New Years.
I just recieved my latest project from Ebay. An A stamped chassis in great shape. It has a few minor scratches on the bottom and some minor parts need replacing, but they are minor to say the least. Here are a few pics before cleaning. I'll post...

Freak, I'm positive Bro. This auction was over on 12/18/10. The seller's name was yuuuup11. Maybe he had two identical cars up for sale? I think I got a good project regardless. Hope you and family have a save New Years.
