This is my first P-car. I bought it early December and drove it to Buffalo from Long Island in the pouring rain. This pictures are from the previous owner and look pretty good. The car is a driver and looks great 10 feet away. The car has yet to drip a drop of oil but does need some attention to the suspension components. The PO did the clutch, plugs, rotor, valve cover gaskets, new radio and speakers and SAI cleanout about one year ago.

One thing that bugs me is the front and back wheels are different and i cannot get the twist to go in the same direction even if i switch one set.

Love the car.
i have been taking it out on dry days to "keep the battery charged". Will spring ever get here!!

Beautiful car! Congrats!

As far as your wheel issue, it appears that the front and back wheels are two different designs. Two of those rims are a replacement to the originals, hence they do not match. Just my observation.

Default Fun First Year

I am still getting to know my 95 C2. I have had the car for 12 months this week and have put the last 2,500 miles on the 65,800 mile odo. I love it. I just picked up a set of MY02 wheels and will be refreshing the suspension with Koni FSD dampers + MO33 springs next week. Not a unique or extreme choice of mods, but I am looking forward to making them!

I hope you will write a review on the FSD/M033 combo. I am planning on ordering these soon.

Deflowered in LA, trafficked to the Middle East, hidden in a thumb for more than 7 years,

found on a Dxb junkyard


finally resurrected last March.


Getting slowly but surely a notable track tool...

I always thought that the three were exterior, interior and cab top cover, so it only applies to cabs.
