I bought this car right after high school in 2001. Had a brand new ZZ4 with M20 4 speed and 3:36 10 bolt in it. It had a couple paintjobs through out its life but was still the original BritishGreen. I drove it for a while but soon people were bugging me to paint it because the laquer was dull and cracked so one day i pulled it into the shop and stripped it to bare metal. It did have a few hidden surprises but nothing major. I was able to save the original 1/4's with some small patches and the floors and structure were very nice..
this is how i drove it for a few years before paint, with a 12 bolt posi and 4:10's..
