    89 Turbo Voyager- Western NY

    I think I may sell my beloved turbo mini. I would really hate to see it go. And to be honest, I am still undecided. I found a great deal on an S10 blazer and I am buying it regardless of whether the van goes or not. Its just whether I keep the S10 or sell it and make some money that will decide what happens with the mini. I want to keep the mini. I love that thing. My wife wants it gone because the blazer looks pretty in the driveway and the van does not.

    Anyways, the specs on the van are in my sig. It runs great, drives great, boosts great and the BOV is unusually LOUD. I only run it at 13PSI and thats all shes ever seen. Its got a hitch on the back and it tows nicely. The e-brake cables need to be replaced, but mysteriously it just passed inspection . Other than that, its good to go mechanically. I want $875 for it. If I get a buyer at that price, I will sell. If not, my wife will be unhappy that the blazer will be sold!

    You probably change cars more often than you change your underwear.

    The van is pretty peppy with the 5 speed in it.

    GM is OK with me....ive owned my fair share of them. I cant pass up this blazer......its a 98 with 120k.....no rust, beautiful shape, but with something wrong with the 4X4 engagement......400 bucks!

    And this is not to say that ALL minis look bad in my driveway......its just that this one isnt winning any beauty pageants anytime soon!

    So, to get this straight......blazers are gay......but you wouldnt mind driving one? Sounds about right.

    I just loaded it off the dolly......this is an incredible deal for 400 bucks. I played around with the vacuum actuator and got it to drop into 4WD LOW, but I cant get 4 high out of it. Im gonna get it on the lift tonight and see whats going on. I drove it up and down the block and the thing runs great....cold A/C....everything works (except 4 high). Hopefully its something simple.

    A local guy....I think its "Zwarbyt" on TD.com. Hes owned minis in the past and also has a Rampage. I have no idea what he is going to do......I think hes just looking for a winter beater.
