Makes me wish I had two of them. One really cool drag car for fun and another one stock and restored for the $$$$$$. It like money in the bank.

That's no way to treat a rare cosmo... Oh well, at least it looks like it runs.

That's some creative front suspension. It looks like a s5 control arm mounted backwards with the coilover bolted to the sway bar bracket. The tie rod goes into the top of the spindle rather than the bottom and it has a custom upper control arm mounted to the spindle where the stock strut bolts to.
