Description:

I simply do not drive this car enough anymore to enjoy it. It sits in my garage. I have owned the vehicle for 8 years now and bought it completely stock. Please see below for details and pm or email me with any questions. I professionally detail and do paint correction on vehicles. This paint is as mint as it gets for OEM. The car does not have rear seats and is ready for a false floor. Will need a new O2A starter eventually. Second gear syncro is no good. I am in no hurry to sell the vehicle and will wait for a buyer. Please no low balls or trades. Price is firm.



Car made 220 whp and 229 tq on 10psi. It now resides at 17psi and has not been back to the dyno. Estimated 275whp.
