Bought on here back in 2018. I built this to try out the Slow Car Fast method for track days, but after one day I found that wasn't really for me and it was just a fun street car after that. Now with WFH I don't drive enough to give this the attention it deserves. I intend to include my massive pile of spares with the car, I've listed the highlights below, but there is more. The car spent most of it's life in Texas before coming to Washington. I intended to paint it DSM, but never could decide whether to do it fully glass out properly or not, hence the pretty bad state of the paint. If you wanted to keep it Silver it shouldn't be a huge job to fix.
