Got a 92 RS vert in my shop today

Got a clean 39k mile 92 RS in the shop today. I actually thought it was a friend messing with me. Asian lady with thick accent asking if I wanted to work on her 25th anniversary convertible.... "YES! Bring it on in!"

So pretty base model car, but I will let the pictures do the talking.

Awsome - Not gonna lie.... i'd feel alot more comfortable letting a shop work on mine if they had one of their own sitting out front. may be a false sense of security, but it would seem they'd take better care of it then your average shop.

Yeah that is actually why they brought it in. We hosted a Mile High Third Gens meeting at the shop, and had 19 third gens parked out front! They have been customers of mine for years, just had this sitting in the garage not being driven. I'm gonna detail it late next month.
