I know most everyone here as already heard this story a dozen times, but one last time
It looked good when I first got it, but then was in an accident...
Got it all fixed up after buying a parts car and putting a TON of work into it, then drove it down to Clarkston Mi for my first meet, then to Connecticut for my first big meet.
Got it all cleaned up, found a mirror and painted it to match
Wheels I picked up for it, found them on some local online classifieds, turns out they came from another old member here who isn't around much at all anymore, Firedevil. Also snagged up some headlight covers.
It was suffering from cancer though.... bad :(
Transmission started slipping, I got that somewhat fixed for a few months then the engine blew at the same time as the diff exploded.
Cause of blown engine, oil pump gearotor broke in three pieces!
Still had the engine and trans from the parts car so they went in. (call it hillbilly if you want, it worked

)
New exhaust on, Magnaflow cat, Flowmaster 80 series, and nice tips.
I sold it to a very good friend of mine and she LOVED the car every bit as much as I did. Unfortunately it was bad luck for her :(
She hit a deer
She also was backed into at the bar one night which cracked the rear bumper cover.
Nikki took all three SSEi badges off it and put one on her keychain, and gave one each to her brothers who also loved the car.
I got the tips back and they found a new home on the '03 SSEi
