On her way home...
« on: December 20, 2013, 10:46:23 pm »
Here is my girl. Perfect weather to drive her home for the first time, eh?



She is still sporting the G60 under that lovely hood, but that is about to change pdq. Please note that she is a '92 B3 Syncro.

ok, one more:



I am not sure if I have ever loved a car as much as this one. There isn't a single mark of rust, anywhere. She is pristine and immaculate.

edit: ok. Maybe not perfect. 3 of the headlamp lenses are cracked but they are all oem and still work. High-beam is like a single, intense spot-light. I need new ones, as well as shields for them if they actually exist.

Nope. We had a failure to communicate. As for my new toy, this thing is better to drive in the snow than my 4Runner. I will have to take care not to high-centre it by thinking I can go anywhere.

Is this the stock cluster?



I love the red gauges. I will have to get the VIN deciphered so I know exactly how she rolled off the boat.
