No kidding. I have lots of pics of my car, and it's nothing but a stripped shell.


PS, I grew up in Morden, MB. Did my auto tech courses at Red River. Anything exciting happening in Winterpeg these days?

lmao I thought the location was poontang till I actually read it again

So would it still be FWD? And 35k is way to cheap for an ls7 with all the things you'd have to do.
