Its amazing these cars are getting "restored" now..lol. But they are nearly 15 years old in some cases and getting hard to find in excellent shape. Man I am getting old.

Car looks beautiful!

European taillights? Car looks great and that was a nice dyno. Nice to see an 11 year old car restored... I need to get on doing an engine swap in my 95 now. Lol

I was thinking the same thing. Just a year older than mine, can't imagine one needed restored yet. But I do live down south and it never sees snow/salt.

Very clean car, nice to see one fixed up when it's much easier to start with a mint car. Two thumbs up!

Very nicely done!
The only thing is personally I'm not a fan of all these retro badges, the motor sounds great. As for the yellow, I prefer a bit more the millennium yellow, because it pokes you in the eye a bit more. The interior is sweet, that retro part, I like.

Always wondered what happened to this car...glad to see it finally finished. Did I miss the dyno numbers somewhere, or were they just not posted?

The rear "SS" badge is upside down. j/k


Looks so nice.
It was a wrecked car too right? so cool to see one saved. Is there a count on the hours in it? If you want to know..

Are the front rotors on backwards? I thought the slot always went in the direction of rotation.
