Exactly. Previous owner kept up on mechanical, but did not fix the normal cosmetic wear and tear items. Remarkably, the major interior bits are in great shape for the age.

Loctite on the shift knob? DAFUQ?
In regards to...?
:laugh:
That's the best car to have. One that's been cared for religiously mechanically, but could use some help in the cosmetics dept. Cosmetics are easy.
Dis.
Yea, that's awesome.

1 - Yes... there was loctite on the Hurst. I know. Idiotic. It is why I needed a new one.
2 - What exact kit I got. Meaning injectors, pulley, tune, etc.
3 - Yep. Cosmetics are easy. A bunch of them on this car, but easy.

I find it scary that someone deemed loctite necessary on a shift knob. People that don't know anything about cars do stuff like that. What's the worst thing that happens if the shift knob comes loose? It becomes loose. That's what the jam nut is for. Idiots.

Loctite on a shifter would be okay, but everyone seems to jump right to #271 Red. The #242 or Blue would be fine in 99% of the cases and you can still remove the part with hand tools.
The dipshit previous owner should have used the jam nut that comes with the shift handle, but probably had no idea what it was for.

OH DANG.
Mine had 107k. But a lot of extras, and the car market we have here. You can find them slightly less, but definitely more beat up.
SC itself is a 5k unit..... I would want that immediately. I paid 1500 more for the car + SC + other things I would get anyways. Still a great deal.
Plus I did not want black. No.
Yeah, and the one I posted has a prior salvage title. You got a screaming deal!

Oh, I had not seen the salvage. Dang.
The one I really wanted sold before I could get it. It was in SoCal. Bright Atlantic Blue, 76k but bone stock. Only 8 grand. In that color I would have taken bone stock.
I'll just paint mine that color. LOL. Anyone got an airbrush??

Rustoleum makes a similar metallic blue color. Order in bulk on amazon and go to town.
