Anyways, I always loved those cars - when I was younger (1988 or so) we went to London and rented an XR4X4 - I would love to bring one from over there and do it up. The only thing I remember about it was how fast it felt to me at the time. Even with my dad having trouble shifting on the left, it seemed like it screamed.
My Merkur is red and stays with my parents in Eden Prairie when I'm down at school in Mankato. It hasn't been on the road for the past year or so because I'm trying to fix a few problems with it and rebuild the turbo. I'm going to hopefully get it finished this winter and begin working on building up a pretty decent E85-powered 2.3T.

I can't wait to see the final project when you get your garage/house finished! I'll have to swing by with my Merkur sometime.

I was in my junior year of Mechanical Engineering and just got burned out on it so I switched to Automotive Engineering just this past Fall semester. What did you study? If you ever visit MSU again, PM me if you want to meet up!
