    Enjoy your new 2 door . It is a steal of a price and seems to be in good shape.

      Now you just need a serious power adder to backup that TKO.

      Time for a Kenne Bell 2.2 or whatever yah call it. Whatever Zach was messing with.

      That is how you're supposed to jack it.

      Up and down.

            Friggin nice!!! I think JEGS has those NASCAR style exhaust tips. Those would be neat coming out in front of the rear tires.

              Here's the rust I have to contend with, before it gets worse. Shouldn't be too bad.

                    From the photo, it doesn't appear to have gone through the metal so should be a relative easy fix for ya.

                      That's not rust, that's missing paint. You southerners are too spoiled!

                            It's too much of a gas hog.

                            Also won't have a usable transmission.

                            That is how you're supposed to jack it.

                                Not driving it to ScottFest...THIS year.

                                I do intend on grabbing parts at the yard up there, and hopefully finishing my 5 speed swap around September. Parts gathering, mang.
