Default Who owned this 35th?

Just bought a 35th SS 6-speed with 31k. The car had been heavily modded at one point and now all I see is SLP subframes, MSD ignition wires and American Racing wheels. Curious as to this cars past. It was bought a North Texas Nissan 2 weeks ago.

My brother was going to buy that car. But when he drove it that was a diffrent story. The car seemed to need a clutch and did not seem to run at its full potential. Also the front end body lines were very off and it looks like it was wrecked and someone fixed it them selves. The timing was off and the car would hardly start.

I am also very curious to how much you payed for it if you do not mind.

No the wheels are not rebels. The wheels are the 200s american racing wheels.


Here are some pictures of the car:

Drove the car clucth is fine. Fires up everytime without fail and put down 334 hp and 346 tq on a dyno so she is running like a champ with only MSD ignition wires so far as I can tell. No timing issues at all. I paid less than 20k for it. Just hit 32k. Body lines were off because the headlights were poorly installed leaving gaps. Had the car checked out at a body shop actually two and they saw no paint work? Not sure if he drove this one or the other one they had a few weeks ago as well.

That is Sr71bb's old car.He sold it to LAMotorcars for around 19k with 25k miles on it in March.
It was modified in the past and had the motor and trans replaced....ummm along with the rear.
The car was in very nice condition but I wouldnt have bought it.

Well the car did not run well when we drove it. Mabey they worked on it after we told them it did not run well.
