Well here ya go.

Taking it to a carwash to get detailed soon.


Came with the Euro taillights.


Under the hood.


I eventually plan on getting those damn rims and getting a real nice paint job. One of the old owners had a minor accident with minor front end damage. They tried to repaint it themselves and it doesn't look very good . But before all of that its going into the shop to get all of the kinks worked out so it'll run great.

Not too shabby. I think I'm going to start to look for a notch to turbo.

I think once I get a paint job the Euros will look better. I had planned on getting a nice clearcoated black.
