The bugs washed right off the next morning, no problem.

Those who have seen this car in person, often comment, thinking it is a 10k or 15k mile car. With over 490 car washes since Summer 2009, it's still looking great!

I was at the Black Hills rally this year as well, beautiful country with plenty of scenic roads. I love the color of your car, ..and your right 15,000 or 20,000 would fit the condition of the car better than 100,000 +, it looks great.

Add another 100k and Chevrolet should give you a free one.

I noticed it's a six speed. Do you have the original clutch yet?
