Time to walk away
Sunday, January 13, 2008 12:36 PM
Hey everyone,

Many of you may not know me because I haven't posted in a while and those who do, this is probably a big surprise. I have been a member on the org for well over 6 years. It comes with great sadness to say that I'm leaving the J-body community. So after 4 bashes and 1 Nopi Nationals along with numerous HIN shows. It is time for me to move on. I've come to know quite a few people on this board most have moved on. Its been a good time .. the memories will always be there but it is time. It will be replaced with the Chevy HHR. My sunfire is up for sale. I don't want to part it out I just want to sell the cars as one unit. I wish everyone luck.

damn that sucks man.

i think the first time i met you was at the 02 bash...you had that sweet arospeed intake that looked like a small intercooler and had the c/f hood with the vents cut out in it and pontiac arrows going down your car. last time i saw you was at the 05 bash. i loved the M&M theme. sad to see it go.

you should post up some pics in P&M as a memorial for it (and to maybe get a few bites for the sale)

Very nice to have briefly chatted with you in both Ohio and Indy bashes.

Amazing car, amazing attention to detail, amazing attitude.

Can't wait to see what you do next!

Thanks guys for the nice words. My plans for my HHR is to keep it simple. I like driving around town knowing I don't have to worry about pot holes, curbs and vandalism to this car. It is a nice feeling knowing my HHR is just like a regular car. Not a car that is catching everyones attention.

Sad to see ya go Vince, but you've been talking about it for a while now. You know you can't keep the HHR simple Nice picture from the Bash (posted by Kevin). That was a good time. I have a few of our cars together. I'll post them up sometime. Wish we could have met up again, but hey, we never know what the future holds........

makin me feel old that no one remembers it lol

that car was very well put together! GL with the sale, may you get maybe 15% of the investment back (disappointing about our cars isn't it?)

just give it a lowering job and a new grille. thats how i went and it just cleans up the look allot. makes it diffrent then every othereone you see but its not something that screams for attention.

No need to leave. All of us either have or will have better cars than our J's. My Porsche didn't replace my Cavalier. Every man needs a beater

Besides, how much is a 96 Sunfire going to fetch? Maybe a year's insurance premium on your new car?

brings back memories.

i think i remember the time on the way to the bash and you were complaining about your hood being a pile of junk. I (jake/GreenZ back then)was in a caravan with you and a bunch of other people i want to say in 2001.

anyways, good luck with the HHR, something about them i like. post up some pictures.
