The car was a Bay-Area CA car until I moved it to MD in 2017. It's never seen salt or snow. I have all records for the car back to the original owner. They are scanned in and available on my Google Drive. The car was built by the previous owner’s shop in Vallejo CA as a streetable track car. He added some nice interior extras – suede accents throughout the car as shown in the pictures. I had a Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) performed on the car by RRT in Sterling, VA http://www.rrtautomotive.com/ . The PPI report is available on my Google Drive.

The car is tastefully modified for track days with Recaro race seats, 6-point harnesses, a VERY beefy roll bar, and numerous suspension and engine modifications as detailed below. The car is still driven regularly on the street, has working A/C, and made several 700+ mile round trips to Virginia International Raceway without a hiccup. The car is a fairly unusual “slicktop”/no-sunroof car.
The car does have a salvage title, but has not been wrecked to my knowledge. All body panels on the car are original with the exception of the front fascia. The previous owner had the car repainted after driving through a construction zone with a lot of loose gravel that damaged the paint on lower half of the car. He had a high-quality repaint by a local shop, submitted the claim to his insurance, and they totaled the car. I have documentation of this in the records of the car.
