Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

As soon as I can liquidate enough possessions to afford to move.



You should oughta. You can help me buy a new Cadillac car, too. Had my eyes on a nice '83 Coupe DeVille in Fort Worth.



I reckon so!

Nooooooo! Not the 83. That year they had that lousy aluminum block engine in it that was a real pain. You always have to go before 1980 and after 1986 if you want a Cadillac from that era---unless you plan on changing the engine. Overheat that aluminum block once and it is ruined forever.

I wasn't too worried about the engine. They're replacable. With 50,000 on the clock and how I drive, it'll last a long time, easy. I baby my cars and maybe put 3,000 miles on them a year.

Yeah but you don't want to start off having to replace the motor. :p I was looking at an 83 brougham that had the motor replaced at that exact same mileage. lol lol That one I have to go look at because it has the d'elegance package and a new motor. :p

Sounds good for an LT1 swap :p

Well, I've been looking about an hour away from there, so not too far away! Especially for car shopping.

I highly recommend Foat Wuth. ;) There's plenty other choices of cars down this way too. :biggrin:
