Thumbs up Finally part of the family!
So the regulars here have probably seen me troll the SC forum quite a bit and know that I've been looking for a SC for a pretty long time. Always wanted a black/black combo and would not settle for anything less.

Finally found a clean 95 BLK/BLK auto, checked it out pulled the trigger.

Now I've been here long enough to understand "PICS OR BAN" so here we go!

Disregard the crappy pix

Some pic's from the ad.





Few shots I snapped before proceeding to do a insanely huge amount of homework.

hey man looks good. Black on black is an awesome combo. What are your plans with it. Do yourself a favor and take out the stick on woodgrain. Love the car though bro and you did right by waiting till you found what you wanted.

Haha Slade your 97 blk/blk 5spd is beyond rare

In the future when I get the funds, GTE swap & R154 or v161

I thought about just getting one and swapping but it looked like too much of a hassle.

I just plan to do some maintenance like bushings etc.

Hopefully I'll get some fitment done properly like you and go boost
