Forest green paint in pretty good condition. I was told it was repainted around a decade ago. It has clear coat scratches on hood, top, and rear hatch from cats climbing on the car (Previous owner).

The car has no serious rust. Surface rust here and there.

I bought the car about 7 months ago. It was a one owner, I am the second owner.

The vehicle had been sitting for about 5-6 years, mostly in a garage. The clutch was slipping and it had a bad vibration when under load driving.

It did not come with stock rims. I put bronze Method Rally 501s on it. Looks good.

WORK DONE:

Pulled transmission to replace clutch. In the process, when draining the tranny, I noticed the fluid had a lot bronze flake in it. I took it to a transmission shop, they checked it all out and advised I replace the syncros and bearing (Syncros, bearings, and seals were replaced). I replaced clutch.

Replaced rear main seal.

I drained and replaced all fluids (oil, transmission, differential, coolant, transfer case, fuel tank (replaced fuel filter).

Replaced timing belt, balancer belt, water pump, and all pullies. Gates timing belt.

Replaced thermostat

Replaced all u-joints

Filled carrier With window weld. The bearings were in good condition.

Replaced fuel pump

Rebuilt front calipers

Rebuilt throttle body

Replaced injector o-rings

Deleted EGR

Deleted evap canister

It had a high loping idle, so I deleted idle air control. Now it starts and runs smooth every time.

Runs and drives great.

Thanks for all the threads that everyone has contributed too. They were a lot of help through this process.
