Correct! I have a set on the water for the GT3 which will also be stripped and re-coated Volk bronze.

Interior wasn't taken care of very well. A lot of the rubber trim needs restoration (it spent some time in AZ). Motor was filthy. Needed a clutch immediately. A panel has been painted and it's decent at best.

I can tackle all of that over time while having a good driver, which is what I like.

Sounds like it will be a fun project and you'll have a blast. BTW the plastic trim inside the car gets scratched if you breathe on it I had to replace nearly everything on the interior of my car. Absolutely love the red. Of all my GT2s the red was my favorite. JBO
