About “Trans-formed”

I bought this car off of a friend for $50 in the spring 2001. The car was in a front end accident and my friend was just going to junk it, but it still ran so I figured it had potential.
I slowly began replacing parts and modifying things and now it looks pretty good. I wanted to keep the exterior of the car looking pretty much stock, but a lot of the other stuff has been upgraded or modified.
Please check out my Specs section for an overview of what has been done.

The car was repainted in the spring of 2002 in my friend's garage (needs updating, but good enough for now).

In the spring of 2005, I installed an original mint interior I took from a wrecked 1984 TA with only 40K miles on it. The interior is basically all stock except the custom flammed door panels that I fabricated myself.
