Extra Information from the Owner
I bought it new and brought it home, April 1, 1989.

Replaced Top after it started falling apart.
Replaced Springs.
Replaced Engine, Clutch, Transmission and Exhaust.
Added subframe connectors.
Replaced Fuel Pump.
Changed wheels to 17' Cobra R replicas. I chose 245/45ZR17s since they are just over 9.6' wide which is optimal for hard cornering.
Replaced rear gears and rebuilt traction-lok.

All work has been done by me in my garage except for welding in the subframe connectors and mounting and balancing the tires, of course. :)

This is my project car. It has 180K on the chassis and 65k on the engine.
