Looks a little beat up, but could clean up nice. I'd take that pinstripe off immediately. Makes the car look thatmuch more weathered and beat up than it might be. Did you get a good deal?

There is some light body damage on the driver side fender and the clear coat is peeling off the top, but I don't lose any sleep over it , doesn't bother me.

Thumbs up

Car looks sweet. Great score as well. What did you pay for it & how many miles are on it?

Nice ride, i didn't see a stall in your sig. With those mods that tranny won't hold up long if you have a stock stall, those 2.73's also need to go.

I paid 2700 for it with 128k on the clock. I've put about $1500 in it since July.

Im pretty sure the stall isnt stock , because it doesnt seem as bad as how everyone said it would be with this cam and I'm almost positive its got some kind of shift kit on it too. the 2.73's are alright for now, i enjoy getting decent mpg cruising around 70 at 2k rpms , but my next upgrades will definately consist of 30# svo injectors, a 2800-3200 stall and maybe some 3.42 gears.

EDIT: Found out that it has a 2500 stall

Buff polish wax. It will make a world of difference.
