Introduction

Welcome. I am new too and have found this to be a great site. The people are very knowledgeable and helpful. I have always loved v-8's and swore I wouldn't even drive a v-6. But there is something I like about mine. Its also an 89RS but yours is pristine compared to mine. I am going to slowly fix it. Nice car and welcome to the forum.

Re: Introduction

Mmm, not too bad. Seats come cheap, same with the dash pad. Looks liek yor headliner needs recovering but it's not bad. I get on that rust asap, doesnt take long with these cars for something small to become something big.
Ohi is this car orange or red??? It looks red in the forst set of pics, then more oj on the second..

Re: Introduction

it would be sweet if it were orange, but its red. it was really bright outside and i guess our camera doesnt like it. its pretty rusty underneath. its just a toy for me though.
