Looks nice, and clean. Clearly, you have too much $ to be a 1st gen enthusiast

Say Hi to Miss Peepers for me. Yes, I have taken it upon myself to rename Your car. For some reason I'm thinking Juila Roberts would great for the role, the Rock ******* killed in that skit

they have gotten pricey since i bought mine, but since you have to redo EVERYTHING anyways, buying something thats complete its probably cheaper in the long run.

i think the auction ended but there was a red on just like mine on Ebay for 21k, its nicer inside, but had the same rust bubbles, so it would need a complete repaint to show* anyways.... and if you're gonna paint it, you might as well buy

this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Trium...5fTrucks#v4-45

or maybe even this http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Trium...fCarsQ5fTrucks


*i dont know how you'd have a show car, once the suspension is greased, you'd loose
