Very nice! Love the wheels, what kind of bodykit is that?

Spiker 12-12-07 05:21 PM

Not sure what body kit it is , I have the original owner sending all the info he has on it.

looks kinda like a mariah widebody kit...could be wrong tho. Wat kind of seats r those, cant read the word at the top of the seat.

Nice car though welcome to the dark side check out trochoids sig line for the links to the FSM

looks like recarro seats.


nice lookin car overall but there are a few things that dont seem to flow.

first thing: gas cap door.

second: front bumper looks kinda odd where it meets the fenders

third: REMOVE THE FRONT PLATE HOLDER!1 GRR!!

I think in ontario you have to have front plates. (got a ticket in quebec or ontario cant remember for not having a front liscence plate....even tho we dont need them in alberta)

djessence 12-12-07 06:55 PM

haha just noticed something. Front emblem says you drive either an azda or an lazda

Yep those are Recaro seats. This car will be my project in the coming summer months. Motor has to be rebuilt, tranny & rearend look at, frame stiffeners replaced, body work and paint done over , gas door made, all weather strips and interior redone. Other than that nothing else to do!haha I have included a pic of my last project I did three years ago...53 IH with 92 full size Chev running gear.

I what I see. Don't be surpised if you wake up one morning with it gone, and a note saying "sorry I had to steal your first gen, next time, don't post such a nice car on the internet without putting up more pictures" :P. Just playing, good luck with her.

looks pretty nice! whats wrong with the engine??

dbragg 12-13-07 08:59 AM

thats a IMSA widebody kit. rare. you lucky mofo

challer2000 12-13-07 10:29 AM

good find

Spiker 12-13-07 12:44 PM

Original owner tells me that it is an IMSA kit. As for the engine...not sure if anything is wrong other than it has not run for twenty years. He did rebuild it back then but never got around to making it run. The spark plugs were left out :scared: of it for some time so i fear rust will have set in. It is better to be safe than sorry so out it comes, besides i want to repaint engine compartment anyway.
