Ok, I found it. It goes back even further than I thought! We probably only went a 3rd of the way, at the most. The really cool thing is that there are cars all strewn about the woods on either side. The really old stuff is right behind his house, but again, I have no idea what is really back...

Ah, good idea! I'll take a look and post back in a bit.

......I grew up on Burnham Road, and as a kid we used to play in the woods around this old junkyard behind this guy's house near the Gorham/Scarborough line. Does anyone know of this place besides me? He has SO MANY cars going back to the '40s and '50s, along a dirt road and into the woods on...

They put my M3 in this week for $800, not $8000. :BangHead: Needless to say, my phone is ringing constantly with unknown numbers. I'm not really mad at Uncle Hick's, because it's just a mistake. I'm just amazed at the number of knuckleheads who can't figure it out without having to call me. I...

Ok, I promise this is the last post....here's a 240 Police Special brochure and a thread on Turbobricks I started a couple of years ago when I found that car- http://k-jet.org/files/1982/asp_08-0981-50.pdf http://forums.turbobricks.com/showthread.php?t=99271&highlight=police

This would be even cooler-

Don't know the mileage, but he wanted something like $7-8k for it. He was telling me it had the baton holders and vinyl carpet in the back, and some other stuff like a cb radio, I think. I would love it,too. He told me a sign company could reproduce the decals. I had a black 1985 240 Turbo...

That car is indeed still around. Alan Auto on St.John Street has it. He wanted to sell it to me for some insane amount. It doesn't have the decals anymore, but otherwise is all original. I remember seeing it patrol the streets of Scarborough back when I was a kid. Hearing stories of this...

Cool, thanks. If it was cheaper and I was sure I was keeping the car, I might do it.

Car is now running!! Ended up being none of the above-it was the ignition coil! The battery was low, hence the bad numbers on the compression test. $74 for a coil from Autozone, plus new rotor/cap/plugs, and she's up and running again.

Wow, I already found a replacement.....that's like $8k- http://london.craigslist.co.uk/cto/958886858.html

^^^Bingo...thanks. Since I've had it, I've replaced the strut mounts, tie rods, rear wheel bearings, new Kumho Ecsta SPTs,gone to black kidney grilles and the wheels are dark grey now. It also has a 318is badge on the trunk. I removed the old stock radio, and right now it has the M3 Lightweight...

Well, this was the Integra, but the M3 is for sale,too. I have to move by April, so I'm planning ahead. $9k for both!!!!

We've all been there. Dealing with the kid that wants your car, you send pics, you answer his stupid questions ("So, how long do you think the motor will last?" Oh, I would say around another 12,456 miles, give or take a few........ :dontknow:), he lowballs you because he doesn't actually have...

Yeah, that's Bill Waldron's new place. He owns Portland Saab and Portland Volvo. It's on Presumpscot Street. I guess it's mostly just his cars in there right now...... I wonder what his criteria is for the cars he allows in. I can't imagine he'd let just anything in there, but if you can come...

Hmm, something else to check. Here's what I've found so far- There is a wire coming from the alternator that was rubbing right up against the drive belt. It had worn away the plastic covering and maybe some of the wire inside. Can't really see because it's so dirty and buried in there. Did a...

LS/VTEC time,then?

I think I might do that, because my ps pump is leaking anyways. Do you know where to get that tensioner? I haven't had a chance to look into it yet, but I'll start tomorrow. I had to worry about replace my torn muffler hangars on the M3 so I could drive that in the meantime. I don't think I...

So, my Integra died on me as I was leaving my neighborhood today. It had been fine, with no running issues at all. The last thing I did was change the oil and filter a couple of days ago. Pulled away from a stop sign and lost power in 2nd gear. The car cranks fine but won't catch. Being so cold...

Good to hear the beast is running solidly on the road,and that the cold start and idle suck,too. Here's to eventual time travel capability. :occasion14:
