If a nissan quest= a mercury villager, and a mercury villager = windstar then couldn't that lead to project sr20det powered windstar? asumming these vans are all the same. Im pretty sure the villager and quest are. :batman

Cool beans. Hard to believe they MSRP'd at $31 large back in 1990.

Are you an Iron Maiden fan? Come on, admit it. It's okay. We're your friends...:)

Maiden rocks. Bruce ****inson would kick the asses of all the craptastic rock bands on the radio right now. That is if he weren't like 60 now. Hehe.

The TTA actually came out in '89, as it paced the 500 that year. It was *only* rated at 250hp, but the car in stock form would run 160mph. It had the advantage of superior aerodynamics over the Buick Regal platform, which I can say from experience is scary over 100mph. Especially so over 120mph.

That one for sale for $20k is a bargain, given it's condition and mileage. My dad just sold his '87 GN with 6k original miles for $18k. It would have gone for more if he had taken his time to sell it. I'll try and post pics of it sometime.

I heard they were coming out with a new album, actually. Somewhere In Time is still one of my favorite metal LP's.

Speaking of domestics, I had a rare sighting the other day: '93 Daytona IROC, twin-turbo four cylinder. Don't see many of them on the roads.
