If you are going to sell the gto do it now, gas prices are only going up.

(that will be paid back in 6-8 months (fuel alone), not to mention cheaper tires, oil changes, and depreciation of my goat)

also, so I'm not putting the miles on the GTO (even tho I'm probably gonna sell her this summer)
I bought her 4 door twin a few weeks ago for $350, $95 for two cv shafts and she's a rollin.

No I don't yet, haven't really started any projects aside from the CV shafts which are simple enough.
