Looks like a decent car! You need to upgrade the side moldings to match the front and rear. Looks like a good pick up for $2700

I remember 16" Rikens on Corvettes back in the day....they are rare as hens teeth these days. IMHO, the 89 was the last good looking Z car. The 1990 looked too jelly bean for my tastes.

Didn't realize the numbers were that low,definitely low production and rare. Might be a keeper.

Yeah, it should be fun. What I need is a bigger garage. I have a two car garage with a ton of spare parts and a 87 300ZX Turbo shell I'm stripping down.
