looks pretty nice. the reason i'm posting and asking is because i live in lakewood and i NEVER see this car. lakewood is not that large of a city either. is this a r3v member's car?

i have seen that car here to

[nwe30]

i swear i've seen this for sale somewhere too. the fenders and hood etched themselves into my memory

It sold for like $4k, IIRC. That was a fair price. Rear bumper didn't fit properly, was in a front end collision at some point and the side skirts were...uhm..."custom installed."

[LuckyHenriksen]

Wasn't that for sale recently in Salem?

[AirplaneBuilder]

Last I remember it had the M50 swap not M52. In person this car does not look so clean, the side skirts were put on bad and the rear bumper is chopped on the sides to fit better. At least this last owner replaced the Volvo lip.

That's Mike's, K04A1 on here. You probably haven't seen it around Lakewood since he hasn't had it all that long :)

Yes. It's my car. Yes I live in Lakewood. I'm not sure why you haven't seen it. Yes it's for sale again. I bought it with the intentions of fixing the little stuff with it and did a bunch of work but I don't have time to play with this car and am tempted to keep modding it when I shouldn't (I have multiple hot rod projects I'm building). It's been a great daily and is a fun car but I just need it gone. The price is open to offers. If you have a problem with the price/car: go buy something else.

Being a person that has helped K04A1 with little things with this car can assure you it's solid and mechanically put together very well. Cosmetics are just that, cosmetics... it wouldn't take more than an hour to fit the kit a bit tighter but why completely go over a car and not leave a little something for the new owner to their touches on? Like he said, if you don't like move on and stop souring the milk for someone who would be excited to pick this up.

And yes, it is an M52

Man that drive from Lakewood to Seattle was fun. m52!!!

Glad you like it Cory!
