Yeah, painted in 2006, engine by Mazdatech in 2000 less than 40K, re-trimmed interior, Eibach springs, Tokico shocks, new tie rods, ball joints, clutch, and more, 10 years of receipts, nice street car that I will enjoy.

Thinking of a Sterling and maybe LSD then leave it alone for once.....lol

Off Topic: Aussie, there is an event coming up in Fort Wayne and I was wondering if you might be attending. Sounds like a great deal for 45 bucks (one day of class with track time, then a race the next day). I'm really hoping to have the motor back in, and everything else finished up in time for this event...

Looks like you grabbed a nice car man. Maybe throw a 2nd gen coil in there along with a Sterling carb, and then a whole lot of cleaning.
