I'll try to get some pics of the car. I did go look at it a couple months ago, just was waiting to decide on what to do. Wanted to think this through.

As for when i sold my last car i did sell it to get some money, but since then things have taken a turn for the best. And I was planning on selling the car anyway to switch to an AWD car. The winters get pretty nasty here and AWD is almost a must for a car like that here. They dont take very good care of the roads.

The guy said he will let it for $500. And i have another motor laying around so its not a big deal. But i want to take my time and build it to be pretty decent. I really do like these cars no matter how much others hate them. lol. and have always wanted a fairly fast street car. So this is not gonna be a quick through it together car. I wanna take some time on it. I know alot of people will say these aren't worth it, but they make some good numbers when built and tuned right.

The fmic is a decent one, couldn't find a brand name, but it is a 1g specific kit. I wasn't to worried about the SAFC. Never used one so probably not gonna use on this car, but who knows. And the exhaust looked pretty decent, not all cut and hacked up.

And i probably shouldn't have said flawless, every car has something, but for a ND car its in really good shape.

I am not sure on the rear end. The car has the lsd label on the door jamb, and the owner said its never been changed out, so i am hoping that it still is in there.
