My New Car! Now with daytime pictures.

Well she is at my buddies house right now... this thing does run badly.. but the pictures Frank had don't do this car justice.

Everything shuts so solid and the car feals so new.  I love it!

The inside is like 100% new.

Awesome!  I'm glad you got it, Claude.

I guess this is probably why you called me, eh?  I was at work and by the time I was done I figured it might be too late to call back.

Glad you picked it up.  Hopefully you can get the driveability issue sorted out.  My 83 was an EEC3 car WAY back when, and I spent some time futzing with it, but it's been a while.
