Why do all XR owners in Texas have such few post count. Did everyone buy their car at once?

[XR4Tim]

I've always been on Merkursport.
Had an XR since 1999.

Mouce, is it a runnig car? I saw one gray XR 85 for sale, here in Houston, one month ago, good car but need a lot of work
if you need help with you new XR, let me know, I have some parts, tools, shop manuals, electric diagrams ...

[Mouce]

It is not a running car, i need to pull the engine, previous owner said that he parked it, where it sat for 10+ years, after a mechanic told him he had blow-by on one of the cylinders, i've yet to try to spin the engine to do leakdown and compression tests.

I'm still around and about to start a nice upgrade on my '86 . I saw that 85 on CL and was pretty tempted to get it...then I realized mine needed the attention more than another project!.

Spring/The Woodlands area.

I have plenty of parts and technical information if anyone needs them...and may be able to offer some help too!
