When I met my wife she was driving a '79 Celica 5-speed coupe (wish we'd kept that car,) and has had manuals only since, with the exception of our Astro Van.

I was building up a list of tabs open with quotes from this thread I was going to reply to, but then I thought "too old" and closed them. Then I saw this.

I learned stick on a friend's early-90's Toyota Tercel (pronounced "Turkul"), possibly the most forgiving manual transmission I've ever met. A few months later the next manual I met - and this is after maybe 2 hours of wheel time - was my mother's friend's '79 Celica 5-speed coupe. I had to drive home from the friend-of-a-friend's 50th birthday celebration, with the birthday girl and my father laughing their asses off in the back seat every time I stalled it going through downtown Vancouver. Good times...

That doesn't look comfortable. But then, it's hard to get a sense of scale. I get the impression that car is quite driveable from the back seat.

Last time he drove it, he was chasing my XJ. As I recall, we both lost our exhaust systems within a few minutes due to advanced rust and abuse, then we had to patch his fuel pump wiring back together with a piece of an EZ30D wiring harness because 30 year old German wiring isn't the best.

They sound mean as gently caress with no exhaust system is what I'm getting at here.

I missed the Quantum but saw that yellow Dasher as it was leaving. I think that was the best Honda turn out at any of the shows so far. Did you get any parts leads from Danny? I don't know if you got one, but a guy was passing out flyers for early civic parts too.

We had the black '99 Grand Am (René's referral). You were busy when we picked it up, so we didn't get to say Hi and someone else replaced the reverse light. But having cold A/C again is so nice.

I don't know if it's just placebo effect, but the car seems to handle so much better that you should take the credit even if you didn't work on it.

Yeah the Grand Am was me. The alignment wasn't too terrible, the tires were low on pressure and the balance was way off so I fixed that up. The compressor may be on its way out though, the high side readings were bouncing around. If for some reason it stops blowing cold bring it back, I put dye in the system as a just in case it springs a leak and we'll check it for free. Next time just say you're Dave's friend, they should knock off like a 10-15% friends and family discount.

Yeah, I've been expecting the compressor to go for the last 3 years or so, but honestly the car is worth so little that it's been hard to justify the work. I was wondering if we'd be a shop horror story for you since I've put off basic maintenance forever. It drives so nicely now that I have to wash it tomorrow and make it look like a real car again. :3:
