      Update

      No^ I am personal friends with Frank.

      Currently texting him, he bought it out of state and never put it on the road. He does not belong to r3v. I think I am going to go take a look at it.

        Coincidence. Looks like a pretty solid deal though.

            ^ For 1,800 is it SO worth it. There is no way in the world I have the money to finish my M30 swap and buy that. I would love to, it would be a lot of fun to have a soft suspension with power.

            But I think I am meeting up with him and checking out it. He seems to be rocking between keeping and selling. Mentioned he used to do SCCA. Would love to have another local to meet up with for cruises.

                      1. Buy
                      2. Get it "sorted out"
                      3. Sell
                      4. Use profit to move out of parent's basement
                      5. ?????

                              Saw the add, never saw it in person. How much sorting does it need
