Since I have modified it to suit me and it is the classic form, I want to keep it forever. Just talking with the wife this morning that if the engine went and we put a modified Jake Raby engine in we would have in essence a new car for 18k. We could not get another one for that that would have the same power and reliability or all the mods I have done. This car is for fun and we both love it.

Well put, I imagine I will end up doing this when my engine decides to quit so that I can pass it to my kid(s) when they are old enough... I currently don't have any so I will have it all to myself for a while still
