I finally got it back from the shop. Needed a new clutch accumulator. It only has ~18K miles so I expect more nits from not being driven.

Looks really clean.

Thank you. I find it amazing that someone would spend big $$$ for something like this and never use it, 1600 miles per year??
On the other hand he did save it for me!

1600 miles per year makes you a very lucky new owner. Great find. Congrats and enjoy.

Yes I bought mine three and a half years ago with 12.5k miles.

wow. nice and congrats! 18k miles.. yeah, you've got some shakedown cruising to do. your new to you car is not yet even broken in! 18k miles and it needed an accumulator. sounds about right LOL> welcome to "the club".

one you get past 130k miles the car no longer needs accumulators or slaves. it just figures you deserve a break as by then you'll have r&r'd at LEAST 3 of em on average hah.

12.5 miles? you've gotta be at least at 12.7 by now, no??

I have it preserved in amber.

hah! heard that works for dinosaurs.. that is brilliant! at least yours will still have "value" in the years to come lol

Put a new accumulator on the floor of the passenger side so that you can get it running when you chip it out of the amber.

^ my theory is once you've replaced three? thats it, you paid your accumulator blues dues
