I’m increasingly frustrated with my l28et s30 not being finished, so I went ahead and made a drastic change.  My s30 is up for sale for a grand total of $3500.  However, that’s not the drastic change.  It’s the result of the drastic change.

I have been planning to drive off to Boston in my Z since the day I bought it.  Just pack up a few choice belongings, sell everything else, and make a go of the drive from the San Francisco Bay Area to New England.  As I progressed through the project, small issues continued to crop up that I wasn’t willing to simply kludge and spent more time fixing than I’d like to admit.  Although there are only a few known issues left, and it’s likely that I’ll sort these out before selling it, the car still needs a shakedown period before I’d consider it reliable enough for a cross-country trip.  I have a lot of people who are apparently looking forward to me moving back (one lovely lady in particular) so I’m not willing to spend (waste?) any more time on this when I could leave sooner.  I have mixed feelings about cutting my losses on this project (selling it for $3500 means lots of losses) but at some point, enough is enough.  I’m missing out on other things that are more important to me.

I’m still driving back, and will give you the full details on those plans this weekend, but for now just contact me if you or someone you know would be interested in a sinister s30.  I’ll add details on what’s included in the multiple goodie-bags and where the project sits today in another post shortly.
