Thanks guys!

Here's a stupid question: to adjust the side view mirrors, there is a toggle-type switch just behind the shift lever that shows the left and right side mirrors. Isn't there supposed to be a little joystick-looking thingy to actually adjust the mirrors? I don't see that anywhere.

I'm used to my race car that didn't have these niceties.

Ha! I didn't even see it under there. On my late '85 I seem to recall it being up by the window switches. This one you can't even see it when sitting in the seat. Thanks!

Wow, that's a nice car! And an 83 to boot. The 83 just seems to have something special about it. I will never part with mine.

What are your plans for the car?

My friends are taking bets as to when the interior will be ripped out and it becomes a track rat. They don't believe me when I say I'm taking a break from racing. The car will be kept original and used on the street only. That's my story...........for now......

SWEET. I don't mind the wheels myself, but Fuchs are the way to go if you can't stand the MSWs. 83s are turning out to be the 944 to have for a number of reasons and that one is really nice.
