Say, are they gonna leave a space in the Trump wall wide enough for your sexy mustang to go through still?
Of course. If not, just put a crowd directly in front of the wall. I'm sure my car will find it's way through at that point.

CarFax would be great. Any accidents, how many owners, why there are missing bolts on the front fender connecting to the radiator support. What kind of tires are on there, how many miles on them, Service records .

My biggest concern would be rust on that bolt, looks like it was removed for something. If it wasn't, it might be in his best interests to replace that/those rusty bolt(s) so that other people don't have the same thoughts/concerns.

As long as the paint is original & VIN stickers look like they weren't tampered with, I don't see a problem with it.

We all know that S2ks are built like brick shit houses - but I'd be more concerned with leaks, condition of the clutch, compression (did the car have a money shift?), etc.

Good luck Jawkneee, text me when you are going to look at it and I'll tag along.

I'll shoot him a text today. Is his phone number on the ad?

Edit - Just shot him a text to see if it's still available and let him know that you had some questions for him Jonny. Go ahead and shoot him a text, his number's on the ad.

Hopefully he remembers me haha. I talk to him every so often, really busy guy. Either way, I'll let you know if he responds any time soon.

Come to think of it, he hasn't seen or heard the 5.0 in person. This might be a chance for me to walk his stock Supra. Matter of fact, this is probably the only chance I have at walking any Supra. hahaha

Road tripping the S2000 right now. Up in the twin cities for a wedding this weekend. Trying to see friends in between work meetings (on vacation time!!!) and wedding stuff. While I don't mind road tripping the S2000, driving through Iowa is NOT scenic. TL has the rear suspension pulled right now so couldn't take her.

For a scenic driver sure! However Iowa is not worth the miles on my baby.

Will do! Hoping to see as may of my friends up here as I can. I lived up here from 2003 to 2007. The bugs on the front of the S from the drive is killing me.
