Man its tuff to think that a car only 6 years old already needs that kind of attention! But glad to see your rebuilding and not junking in a couple years. You'll love it when done! How about suspension upgrades, interior, ect. How far you gonna take it?

Personally I think it looks pretty sweet in gray primer!!! I had a chevy luminum that I was going to repaint black, but seeing the contrast between the primer and black plastics, I left it the way it was and actually got comments on it!!!! I like the primer look... SORRY!

With the low numbers on these cars I believe people are going to start to spend some $$$ fixing up the older High mileage Marauders. Give it another 2-3 years;)
