Bxstr, osu s2k, and CDILL .... I still can not figure out how to DM/PM you guys to discuss further. I guess I need to post more, or buy a year subscription or something.

Congrats Tony! You should be able to PM once you have a certain post count. If that doesn’t work, I’m guessing if one of us PM’s you first, then you should be able to respond.

Osu S2K was a prior owner so for any of those details, reach out to him. I’m happy to help if you have questions on the car itself or part numbers etc.

I hope you hold onto this one for a long time. That’s a really special car. Glad your experience with Doug was solid. He’s (Switchcars) one of the good guy dealers out there.

Not a very clean example. Paint is not good and it has had paintwork on the rear quarter panel and door. The paintwork also doesn't look of the best quality.

I inquired about that car and passed based on door painting thickness.

You can catch the action at :40 second mark and on.

I wonder if "had it corrected" means that they had the rear quarter painted again, or they color-sanded the drip/run and polished it out? Not clear to me.
