Issues with the car.
- There is some body damage and rust on the car. It's all pictured. It looks great from 5ft away and I pick the car a part but it could use a good amount of work. So areas have been fixed by po's. left strut tower has been repaired at some point and the floor has been patched in a few areas.
- Frame notched, tierods Notches and the rear section of the arches trimmed behind the rear bumper for more clearance. I know some people are very against this type of thing up it has really helped with the car being a low as it was.
- Power steering feed line has a small leak at the pump.
- The starter will get heat soaked on day it is 85+ degrees out on long trips and have trouble starting the car till it cools down due to the exhaust being located right below the starter. A starter heat blanket or heat tape should fix the issue.
- E-brake cables are removed & the right rear caliper does not have the bracket to run the e-brake anymore. (had to be removed when I installed my custom beam, the stock beam is now back in the car.)
- The wiper motor and arms is currently removed to make room for the engine harness to go. I can easily change this if the buyer ask.
- the harness it tucked but I did not remove or cut any wires (besides the fan switch which was cut then re connected to past through its new routing) just de-loomed, re-warped and relocated them so there is a good amount of wiring sitting in the rain tray to hide them right now.
- The side skirts are pictured but do not come with the car, I just dont have any new pictures at the time. They were rough shape and after removing them they were no good.

The Rust and body damage.
I was getting the car ready for paint and swapping out rear beams so that is why the car looks so part. Cl molds are back on the car.
