No. I never even thought about it. Did i? Why do you ask?
Thought this was yours.

Of course now I see your interior, which I don't think you have ever posted. And I thought I remembered you had a few different sets of wheels. So, I thought it was yours.

Yes, your correct, that is my car. I purchased back in the fall of 2015. I don't know how old that ad is, but i did buy it from that owner. I found the car on craigslist and bought it after watching it for several years. I've never seen that ad before.
I've added the rally gauges, sport steering wheel, iroc box, 32mm front sway bar with a rear sway bar and aluminum drums. And i change rim/tires almost as often as my wife changes her mind. Lol These will be on the car for a long time.

It's nice seeing these cars coming out of the woodwork and finally being recognized for the cool cars that they are.. Some prime examples, too. Where are all the 442's?
Where do I put in my vote?
