- Background
- There is a DIY auto repair center in Wadsworth, Ohio, Aaron the owner teaches people to work on their own car and this is the Spyder he bought to bring people into the world of mechanic repairs and customization. At the end of the build, he decided to give back to the community and give this car away in the form of a treasure hunt, find the keys, keep the car. My boss at the time ending up finding the keys and winning the car. After a little while, he mentioned looking for a truck. I offered my 98 Ram for the Spyder and he went through with it. I now am overseeing this car and planning to keep it as a fun driver and maybe take it to a few shows.
