Very similar to the previous forum but
there are some subtle differences

  Sorry .......I can't sell this car . If you ever get to own one you will know what I mean too .

 I guess I must of had too many beers when I posted this comment about selling my car . I am still driving it frequently and have had little problems with the car . I have been researching articles in the forum that pertain to brake issues and upgrades . My car has the original GM metric brakes on the front and ?? on the 9" rear . The car stops OK but man you have to stand on the darn pedal
to get the car to brake quickly . I have researched the forum and there is lots of good advice . Last Fall I drove my car almost 300 miles on Texas back roads and had a blast . I have put heat
shields on my side pipes and that has been good for the new riders and kids that got nicked a few times by the hot pipes . When I wanted to sell my car a while back I was thinking of a Daytona
Coupe but that was short lived and I will keep my car now in perpetuity.......I gave it to my son so I won't be tempted to sell the car again and he lets me drive it . My dreams came true and
I still thumbs up and people most of the time come and take pictures when I am getting fuel . I let the little tikes stand in the seat and hold on to the steering wheel and the grin they have is
something special for me . I am always asked : " Are you sure you don't mind my child standing on your seat cover ? " .....Nope I sure don't . I was in the auto glass & upholstery business for
40 years and I just recently recovered and re-padded my driver seat bottom cushion . I am a pretty big guy and I open the door and stand on the seat to get into the car myself . I hope all you
Hurricane owners have as much fun as I have had and It was worth all the time and effort and money for me to get my dream car !  Drive it hard and safe and good luck to all . P.S. If I would
have wanted a FFR car I would have bought one ! ;) :)

Hello Mike, good to hear from you again.  You and your son should come down to San Marcos next month!
