Nice little build you got going on. Is that Tanabe exhaust an axle-back or cat-back?

I bought the car "AS IS" from the previous owner as stated on the bill of sale.

I contacted him about it and he said he bought the car from another guy in CA. Which according to the Autocheck, must have been the guy who bought it in MD and rebuilt it here.

idk.

Doesn't Autocheck/carfax have a buyback?

AutoCheck Vehicle History Reports - Buyback Protection ?

The CARFAX® Buyback Guarantee® ?

Glad to see moves to the function side of things, much cooler to drive fast around the track than worry about the pebble your about to hit. Good luck on the build!
