I heard you blew it up again. I was thinking "Oh nOes!". Well i'm glad to hear you didn't. You should learn something each time you blow it up. I'll probably see you downtown once they clean up the chip seal. I'm a little bitch when it comes to chip seal.

Louvers will not be for sale. I just removed them to repaint them. The wheels were one of the biggest improvements to the exterior of the car I have done...I love them.

Like the EXP.. I see the Louvers are off the rear hatch in some pictures. Are you looking to sell this? If so, interested for my 1984. Also the GT rims look great. Been up in the air on what to put on. Might now go with the GT rims and paint them a metalic dark grey.

Hey man! I's John from the ERDTOnline forum. You said that you would be interested in hearing more about my 87 EXP. Check out my page here and let me know what you think. I'm seriously impressed with your EXP, wish mine was as quick as yours. :-)
