well i HAD to sell the car, i am moving tomorrow outta the country

PLUS my car is cursed, it fought me every step today, wouldnt start, then the rear ebrake seized, then the brake pedal got caught on something. I spent 9 hours getting it ready, screwing around with shiznit. I took my Shifter out and it was a cu NEXT TUESDAY, the center console didnt want to come out at all, it bent and bound on everything. Its normally really easy. ****ing car. I dont miss it. Anyone who has worked on it thinks its cursed. argggg im getting angry typing this.

Or maybe it was telling me it didnt want to go?

dont worry guys i have a MN12 with a minitub and a solid 8.8 in the works. Going large remote mount with some real chassis work. I'll make an 87-88 turbo coupe as my next drag car. Sinister black and hovering above the ground by only an inch.

Yes, but neither of those is an 83 TC, not by a long shot ;)

You gotta do what you gotta do.  Hopefully the new owner will look for a home for the shell after he snags the drivetrain.
