Looks like it's in great shape! I like the black trim. Shame they make you put front plates on her   :(  What are your plans with it?

Will you be bringing her down to the NECG on the 24th?

Thanks! My buddy I got it from repainted it after he bought it(still needs to be wet sanded and buffed), mainly because the rear bumper cover was broke and the paint was faded some(no rust). It didn't run when he bought it and he had a hard time tracking down the problem, turned out to be the distributor...Until i bought it last month it hadn't seen the road in almost 7 years....only 55k on it now. He sunk almost 3k into it after buying it for $400. He never drove it for the 2 years he had it, that is until I bought it from him LOL. Anyway for now I'm trying to work out some minor bugs that have me baffled, some things I was able to figure out by doing alot of reading here. Its never seen snow and thats not gonna change as long as I own it.

Missing the foglights, calipers are the right color at least, but black or red might look better on a red car.

If you heard it from an automotive forum, get a second, and third opinion.
