Which engine? What are "all the goodies"?

What's the history of the body (obviously a rust question)?

stewardc · « **Reply #4 on:** August 04, 2008, 04:32:43 am »

Engine:

Bored out AAZ with crank fix - New pistons - all ARP studs throughout - new head ported with Comp Cams valvegear - Giles pump - Garrett T3 turbo - PP Downpipe with 2.5" exhaust and large Magnaflow muffler - Stainless flex turbo oil feedline - ACT clutch

Body:

From California, totally dissassembled and blasted. No rust, though it'll need paint in a few years. Anything that moved and wore was replaced (suspension, steering, brakes, etc.. It even has new rear brake drums. GTI interior and 5-gauge console. Shifter is Missing Linkz. All bulbs are LED.

Not yet, man. I'm thinking I'll keep it now. It's just too much fun to share with someone else.

Sell me the steering wheel insert.

I've always said I'd trade my wheel complete for a good wood wheel.

I know but seeing as how the only wood wheel I have is in a 64 Falcon and not in good shape you should just sell me the insert outright so I dont have to use the leather corrado wheel.
