Look for a wrecked Q to pull the motor, chances are there's one that a drive-able wreck, that wouldn't be too hard to get to AZ.

Most of those have been mistreated.

I don't trust a US engine.

Sorry to hear about the Q, Greg. If the engine in my Q died, it be going to the junk yard, but it seems to me that you have a special Q and it just wouldn't be the same if you didn't have it. Not only that, I don't think you'll get as much as you want for it if it's not running. Fix it.

I actually like that smell!!!

Man I was gone to Boston aver the weekend for a gig. I miss two three days of Nico and this shhhit happens.

Sorry to hear about that. It really sucks.

You said the right thing, walk away from it for a few days get some clarity and then you'll make the right decision. Don't sell it because of the frustration.

All that said, I agree with most everyone about keeping the car. Nobody knows it and loves it like you do. They might later, AFTER they've owned it for a while but not right now. So it is NOT going to be worth as much to them as it is to you.

Sorry to hear about that Greg! But I'm sure you really just want to put whatever you get for it towards a nice Y33 *ducks*. I'm sure you'll end up fixing it though

Now if you were White and lived in a trailer, you'd know how to use them properly.

I think this is a perfect candidate for a 5.6 supercharged project.
