I really don't see the problem with the car I bought. I got it for $800, yeah the interior smells like **** but nothing a little Febreeze won't solve. OK maybe a lot of Febreeze. Besides it's getting stripped anyway, and some nice new racing seats won't smell like ****, at least until I build that s/c'd motor...

hey project... try oziom to get that smell out!!!

I've had mice in every stage of life and death in my car for a couple years now... and amazingly that stuff has started to clean up the smell... I had to dig all the nests out first, of course

That car is really nice... did he switch over to 4x114 wheels? i've never seen those in 4x110 before

those rubber band tires are not functional

And you would know this how? Steve DD's his car and I'm sure he puts it thru the paces. Of course I don't know if those are the same tires that he is currently using or not

I you ever have the chance to pull up next to Steve's car, better be driving a 3rd gen unless you want your left in the dust. Even then, all you will see is tail lights.

If need more width for wider tires, fender flares is another option.
I'd have to agree with the not liking widebodies on 1st gens. My problem with them is that they all go in at the door and just seem cheesy to me. Seems to me that by now somebody would have made a nice one that included a new skin for the door that made a more gradual transition to the extra width. If anyone does make a widebody kit like that, then I could get behind it. Don't get me wrong, I know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, it's just that this beholder can understand why some don't find beauty in the widebody.
