I've had my 88TA for almost a year now and have never driven it. After going through an engine rebuild and restification of the interior and replacing some exterior parts, I still haven't gotten it on the road. Despite being so close (really just need a day to finish it) I've found myself contemplating the For Sale sign.

I found myself idelly scheming to find a way to trade or sell the 88TA... for a second gen TA (77 - 81). Tim's work on his, and a number of other websites with pictures like http://www.transamcountry.com/ just really make me want the second gen TA I desired before getting the 88TA.

Right now I'm not sure I want to go through the hassle of selling an almost-finished third gen, yet I REALLY want a 77-81 TA. Can anyone suggest an easy way to give in and swap the third gen for a second gen? Or any good arguments for keeping the third gen (beyond being so close to finishing it)?

All tied in knots trying to sort this out.

Despite the two family vehicles, 3 kids, wife and mortgage, I can finally realize the dream - 88 TA almost all stock... for now. http://www.cardomain.com/id/untameddave Wanted this - , but ended up with this - for free. Can't argue with free.
