izzo Posted April 11, 2011 Report Share Posted April 11, 2011 Good god that thing is ugly. Fits right in :D Some major cleaning under the engine bay, rims/tires, and if you can afford to shoot some Matte black paint on it, would shine it up greatly. I got dibs on the motor if you part with it later down the road... Quote Link to comment
