- Background
- Purchased from a friend in 2003. Had been in a wreck or something. Wasn’t well cared for but, I had to learn on something. We’ve been through a lot together. The first part I changed was the alternator.
Had a T-25 but went to an Evo III. That got stolen... Then went to a 20g from SBR, then 18g sl2.
