new owner came and picked it up tonight, but i gave it a wash at lunch time and snapped a few quick pics.
Sorry to see her go, as i've spent a lot of time, effort and money on it, over the few years it's been in my posession.
new owner is a member here so i'm sure you'll see it again.

I noticed that too, she's sitting well high on the back end. Even makes the back wheels look as though they're 14s 
Lovely car other than that, not to my taste but nice all the same

it's on eibach springs all round, but there's little weight over the back end which is why it looks high. handles pretty well, but i know Fred wants to drop the rear a bit lower.
Hope you enjoy it Fred. I'll be interested to see the outcome of the power run.
When you come to the manifold and throttle body, it might be worth getting the runners matched to the head.
you can download a manual for the alarm from the clifford site, incase you want to change some of the settings.
I've a feeling i've got another folder somewhere with loads more reciepts in it that i didn't give to you.
Got the invoice from the alarm and exhaust somewhere for definate.
I'll forward them on when it comes up.

Cheers Myke, going to put all the papers etc in a folder and get it all sorted out in to some type of order.
Ultimate aim is to get it under 14 seconds on the 1/4 mile as well as using it on many a track day.
