My car's been torn down pretty low.

[Not by me]

Previous owner installed new (or  close to new) almost everything.

Fenders, bumper cover, shocks, struts, springs, tie rod ends, ball joints, valvetrain, transmission, turbo, radiator, fans, fuel system, etc.  Anything he couldn't find new, he replaced with the best parts he could find.  He kept all the reciepts.  When I added them up it came out to be over 9k.

Lots of fantastic work everyone is doing.

I'd love to get a hold of new gaskets for the quarter windows, the trim for around the back window, the body side moulding, and some NOS Bird emblems.

I can't have the car repainted until I have these items.
