LO3 5-Speed.

Would you believe this is the one I paid $1500 for?

I've babied the Automatic since the day I bought it new, so it's probably my sentimental favorite. The seat of my pants say that the 5-speed is the most fun to drive. But like all $1500 cars it needs some work. The pic really looks better than it does in person. It needs a new power window motor, right hand front fender has slight ding, passenger side door has lock cylinder hole damaged from attempted break in, and needs dashpad replaced. The guy I bought it from parked it for 6 months and neglected it after he bought himself a Ford Ranger. Future plans are for new paint and a mildly warmed over LO5 350.

I use Eagle One A to Z wheel cleaner and a very soft bristle brush and a lot elbow grease to clean the wheels. I've found a few of Eagle One's wheel cleaner's are excellent to use. By the way both cars are black.

Hey Tim, I see you on Jonesboro Rd. at least once or twice a week on your way to work. I'm not sure which of the twins you drive to work most often, but it looks pretty good. Next time I see ya, I'll flash the brights to say howdy- I'll be in a white Intrigue.
