I saw a white Stealth, it was at least an RT or above (it was dark outside). It was around 5:50AM on 01/24/08. I was traveling on I-95 South just south of Providence at the RI-4 exit. The Stealth had New Hampshire plates.

'94s have glass headlight covers... Don't get that haze on them!

True - I just assumed that you didn't actually get that close to it to inspect the headlights. I thought maybe you had super-human vision and spotted the lexan lights while you were driving by

atarirx · 01-26-2008, 06:21 AM

Yeah, super-human vision, thats it!!! If you can forget that thing I said earlier about seeing it in the DQ parking lot, I'll pretend I didn't get out for a closer look.

Gee, if I didn't know any better, I'd probably think you're a little strange for getting out and checking out someone else's car in a DQ parking lot.

...but this is 3SI.org - we all share the same addiciton. Ask my wife about how many times I've 'embarassed' her for doing the same thing.

akotten · 01-26-2008, 10:08 AM

Haha it doesn't matter how many I could spot because I'm from SD and I don't think anyone else here is.

At least you don't make an illegal u-turn to follow someone until they stop to talk to them. Not that I have.

Saw a black 2G 3Kgt (94-95) in Seymour on CT34 Friday at around 3:30p and five minutes later saw another 2G 3Kgt, red w/hoop spoiler and black wheels on Bridgeport Ave in Shelton. I think it is the same one that lives across the street from a friends in Derby.

BTW I picked up the white 94 sl that has been broken down for six months on 34 in Derby. Left a note on it five months age and they called me last week needing to sell or their landlord was going to have it towed. My stall is up to six, a 94 sl, 95 base (parts car), 95 sl, 96 TT, 05 Scion TC and 06 Tundra. My place is starting to look like your's Myron.

smashbar · 01-27-2008, 12:22 PM

LOL

I actually sold both SL's last week, so I'm down to 2 3S's: a white '92 R/T (35k miles, showroom cond.) and my panama green '96 VR4 (54k - which will be sold soon too). So yes, you now officially hold the title for most cars owned.

Anyways, what do you plan on doing with the new SL? Daily driver? Parts car? What's wrong with it?

kookie026 · 01-27-2008, 02:23 PM

It has at least ignition problems. It needs the standard TLC that any car that has been sitting for six months needs. Overall it is complete except for a battery. From what I could gather I think the computer is fried. The kid who was driving got it from his mother who owned it since 96. Neighter of them know anything about cars and since the son was driving it all he did was install a stereo system. In the process he shorted the positive battery terminal to the point of breaking the wires. I jumped it to my car with battery cables and all the electrical worked but the starter solenoid wouldn't fire. He said he thought that the timing belt broke because he heard a noise before it stopped for the last time but I pulled the timing covers and the belt was fine.

I'll give it a good look over after I put the tranny in the 95. If it is too much work to fix I'll part it. I don't have alot of $$ in it so the after cutting loose of the headlamps, Ft bumper, rear spoiler, rocker covers, window regulators and rear garnish/lights I'll have all my $$ back plus a little. I also have most of the parts to make it run if it has the problems I think it has.
