Its sucks not having an F-body

Man I know winters coming and all but im starting to really miss my car. Anyone got an F-Body that they'd be willing to trade for a Chrysler TC by Maserati? Its a cool little convertible but its lacking power and manlihood

I need to fill this void soon before I go friggin crazy!

I could not imagine not owning or driving one,I have owned several over the last 16 years.

Just driving another car or truck makes me appreciate how good my F Body handles.

Good luck in your search.

I know exactly how you feel, when I got rid of my F-body I went crazy, I needed another fix quick, even if it was a junker. But instead I got a Y body, I still miss my f-body and will some day get another one. Now I couldn't live without a Y body. Its like an addiction and I'm totally hooked. No matter what American Muscle car you fall in love with you'll be addicted, especially with a nice F-body. Selling my 2002 Z28 was one of the biggest mistakes I ever made but my 85 vette has filled the void pretty nicely, especially in the turns. I agree winter sucks, I'm thinking about moving in a few years to a climate where I could drive a vette and/or camaro year round. Keep your chin up though you'll get another one soon enough.

Don't feel too bad, if you still had one you would be working on it all the time. If you miss that, then I am sure that you have a friend who needs some help with his/hers.

Try owning a really nice F-body for the last 2 years and not being able to have it. I rolled mine and because of some major setbacks it's taking me that long to get it back. Now that I have it, it's winter and I can't drive it. I waited all the time I've owned it to have T-top's and now I finally have those when I can't use em. I got a new T-top'd roof installed on the rebuild. Now that sucks. Dreaming of one is one thing, owning it and being without it is another. It's like having a really big ***** and bragging about it all the time but not being able to get my pants unzipped to show it off.
