             There she is, comments? I have yanked all the 5spd conversion parts from the yellow 77' so that will happen shortley. Body is allmost perfectly straight, minor dings here and there, the biggest problem is the metal lip for the weather stripping is all rusted out, so gonna try and figure out what todo about that. I have on order a set of Konig Rewinds 15x7. .. And dont forget the Projectors from a Mazda Cosmo, they are gonna be retro-fitted into the stock housing with a clear lense... .. For those wondering too I did happen to mention the motor for which the car is gettin.... Surprise Surprise... DTE -------------------- I am a thief.
do not buy anything from me. |

Ive only seen one 1st gen, and its a burnt orange one, and its damn nice. Ive seen the guy a few times, and parked by him at the Post office once. Im sooo jealous of you, i absolutley love these cars.
