Got it for an awsome price for what it is besides from the guy who had it before was a welder and thought it would be smart to remove the muffler and just have a cat and straight through 2 1/2 inch exhaust... sounds mean but backfires. Pics will be up very soon cant wait to see wat you all think hope you all like any feedback is awsome Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I like it,same colour as my VS V6 eco,good cars VS,get some thermo fans too,too much fan roar from the 1970 metal clutch fan and you will have a bit more response without it.
