•   Greg Baker, owner of Injected Performance in Lexington, Kentucky did the swap in 2010. (Shop is now in Texas). The engine work was done by a shop in KY they were associated with.
•   Before the project was 100% complete, Greg sold it to a NoRotors forum member in Titusville, Florida. That owner only had it for a few months before he was redeployed to Afghanistan and sold it to me in 2011.
•   My goal was to keep this outstanding build moving in the right direction, which is what I did.
•   I never raced the car. Had it on an autocross track a few times to test out the suspension and it handles beautifully.  It is very well behaved and easy to drive on the street.

Thank you for your interest. PM me for hi-res photos (many more than shown here) and with any questions.

Glenn

Thank you. Yes, clean title. The accident was minor but a new rear quarter panel was the best way to restore it.

Yea I frequent this part of the forum often. The two main detractors to your car for me personally is no A/C and I dont like the color black. If a car doesnt have A/C, especially in Tucson AZ, its utility as a car is of limited value.

If I lived in Tucson I'd want A/C on my damn lawn mower, if you have a lawn, that is.   ;)

Understood. The a/c is being fixed. The color will remain the same.
