Do you have contact info? Also, is the car located in NJ or North Carolina? The ad says NJ, but the plates say NC.

Good luck with sale. I used to have that Racing Beat intake... I always liked how it became pliable in your hands after a long drive.

Dang, I thought it was in North Carolina, just can' see buying a car that far away. If I flew up there, I'd have to buy it to justify the flight...but I really want it.

That Nardi wheel is about $400 by itself, just beautiful. I could make it to Maryland. I just went to Florida and picked up a 91 from the original owner. I'm actually going to the bank to pay off my 99, I sold it to Rotornut. I'm pretty sure that I wouldn't have a problem getting another loan from the credit union.

I drove down to NC with Paul to pick up this car and drove it for a little on the way back home. It was very, very quick for a naturally aspirated 1.6. Paul and I both though there had to be something done to this internally. I'm not saying there is, just that it is/was fast for naturally aspirated.

that car needs to be lowered about an inch or get some larger wheels, otherwise it looks really great for a body kit.

I like it. A smokin deal for a completed car. $3k car, $6k kit. $2-3k bodywork and paint , $3k in interior and top improvements. It would take $15k to duplicate it.

I'll let him know to check that email. Maybe he can come on the forum too.
