I love your interior! Your car looks in great condition.
And I'm glad to know that I'm not the only one on this site with the Federilizer bumpers.
All in all, great

Hey guys,
It's been an eternity since I have posted on these boards. In that eternity of six years I have managed to keep my beauty, which now has a freshly rebuilt engine and giveher a new sister as of this last Sunday.
Photoshoot after the rebuild.

The engine was rebuilt using all OE German parts.
Linky for pix --->
Her new sister has not been started for three years, so hopefuly this weekend she will be running. She is not nearly as flashy without recaros, iS front dam, Kamie rear or an LSD.

Enjoy!
