God she is beautiful. My suggestion, Get maintenance done, replace your suspension bushings, maybe some new springs and struts.

Also fix the door trim. Other than that it looks like a clean factory car.

Thanks guys. Got the car for free with 114000 kms and still has a flawless factory undercoating Interior as of right now is the factory grey, would have kept it original but the original owner had someone spill oil and puke behind the passenger seat so its gotta go and i couldnt find a grey replacement. Found a flawless black interior for cheap. Not too sure what to do with the rest of the car though. Thinking I might just freshen up the body and paint, urethane bushings, lower stance, maybe a set of wheels, and rebuild the motor(as a precautionary, haha). Any ideas or tips on what I have planned?
