most people in your situation do a bit of investigation of what cabrios in your area are worth or have the car appraised. you can get way more for your car than $2500 if you appeal their offer. i don't know if i've seen your car before (maybe at the picnic?), but if it is nice, it could be worth $3500 or $4k.
after this, the other thing most people do is take the money, then buy bac

I like this option, especially with my beautifully painted Manifold. However I'm unsure about the legality. I'll be driving 92 miles to get these parts. I'm sure to see a cop along the way. I know it's illegal in California, but I can't figure out if it is in Oregon.
I'm sure you'd be fine as long as you tell him you're on the way to get a h

Maybe this is the new future Mrs Earendil and you just don't know it yet

It's a little U shaped puller especially for tie rod end removal. One version
Mine is a lot cuter
Cool, another tool I can't live without.
Tell Earendil to send you the one I let him borrow a couple years ago! It can be the official BENN tie-rod puller.

I'm trying to find info on what broken springs mean.
since no one else's advice has been very useful, i'll chime in.

you dont want a 410 unless you have a 4-banger or an automatic. 3.73 is perfect.
I don't know if you remember this, but the M20 is a lot closer to a 4 banger than to your S52 B)-
An M20 with 250K on it, even more so B)
The only people I've heard complain about a 4.10 in their cars are those people who do a lot of freeway miles. the 3.73 spins the engine

you may want to get new rear subframe bushings while you're at it. was the 325is auto or manual? that will determine the diff ratio.
