I understand your problem with money for parts so i have an idea.....

If you invite us all up for a BBQ we can all bring all of our extra parts and work on the car all day.....

you provide the food and post a list of everything you need for the car.

I bet that every part you are looking for exists in this forum and I for one would love to give some stuff away for a good cause.

I got some alum louvers that are perfect for a black car and have all the mounting hardware.

We can all bring some tools and it will be like "OVERHAULIN" (Rotary Style)

Well, as far as that goes I'd LOVE help on her and would welcome any help on working on her, as this is really my first 'car project', but I wouldn't ask (honestly, i don't really think i need) for other members to give me parts. But hey, if you're ever going to be up this way, lemme know, I'd be happy to have the help. ;D

Any new news on the thing?

Is that black or a really dark blue? My eyes may be tricking me about that!

I'm for one on keeping it stock.

Its definately black, they didn't make a blue LE.

Its a Limited Edition model. Only 3,000 of them were made. I can safely say all of us wish we were you. I hope you enjoy the fruits of your childhood dreams.

I'd be up for the BBQ, too. I wouldn't be too much help, but I'd be there as a student too, lol.

Well, I'm going to look to have one in August if there is an actual interest. Long way for you to come from Ohio though.

Write it down... plan your project.
Take your time, dont rush with this project.
It took me 3 years to finish my project... and that was after 7 years of ownership.

Good luck,

I know I shouldn't be worrying about this now, but for future reference, where did you get the headlight kit on that nice blue one?

I can see a lot of PB Blaster or spray bottles full of kerosene in your future!

That is a very, very cool story. Congrats! That's a rare bird you've got there!
