Such a clean car. If there wasn't carfax, throw a speedometer on there with 50,000 miles and no one will ever know.

Congrats man, you have that thing looking better than the day you got it, I'm sure. Great looking.

212 on the stock tranny has GOT to be a record. You getting it rebuilt, or just changing it?

Hopefully! my car was in desperate need of the 210k service...my spark plugs and tranny all seemed to show failure symptoms at the same time..

and the shop is charging 2037$ for everything, including timing belt change and spark plugs
