T6, one more cylinder, one more turbo...


« on: December 04, 2007, 12:40:09 PM »

My Cousins Boyfriends Dad bought this on eBay for $300 and it was offered to me for that same price, it runs, it needs new rotors, and some front suspension work. Comes with some extra parts, looks like paint wise its OK, could definitely use some work and maybe a different color (satin black?!) Looks pretty good especially the interior, needs some love but I figured I'd show all you guys and hear what you have to say about it!

Thanks
John

yeah, it does have a satin paint job, but satin black would be sick.

For $300 that's awesome, DOO IT.

And definitely paint it satin/flat black, that'd be sick.
