I looked at this car when it was for sale. Not in person - too far -
but I gave it consideration. $35k was more than I was willing to pay.

My understanding is it did sell - for less than half the asking price.
When I heard that, I kicked myself for not making a ridiculously low
offer and snatching it up.

All I want to know is, how'd they get the Porsche 6 speed in, and
specifically which transmission did they use? If I keep my DeLorean
the engine has got to go and I'd like to ditch the tranny, too, but I
don't want to cut the car up to do it.
