    thank you all! unfortuantely it was wrecked 2 years ago! (reason for sitting) but it wasnt bad, it still has the original bumper cover, fenders, hood, and bags didnt pop, my boss traded a job for it, for his son, we rebuilt it, and a few days out of paint his son wrecked rolled their BMW a few times, and my boss refused to give him a car he'd kill himself in so he parked it, 8 months later, i asked about it, gave me an AMAZING price, and i bought it!
