Dayum, those floormats look like they came from Ritz-Carlton circa '63 Did your aunt ever tell you she got shot at on the passenger side too? jk Nice car though, she kept interior looking clean

nice pics. and all you need is a dremel or a die grinder(on a air compressor) sand that top rust off(hopefully it's only top rust). then you go to the dealership and get some touchup paint and repair..

are you really going to turbo it or keep it stock for now??

It'll be boosted eventually for sure. I'm probably going to do wheels and a drop first.

I don't know whether it's better to just swap in a TT motor or boost this one. I'd rather find a lower mileage motor to boost, to be honest.

If some of you remember, the car got hit on new years and it got a brand new front bumper. I'll get some decent pictures taken in the next couple of weeks.

The rust on the passenger door is still there. I want to find a wrecked 97 in Classic Green Pearl so that I can just swap the door shells.
