Well, it's not really a project per se since it's a runner and driver. It just needs a lot of tweaking and "de-Mickey-Mousing" but it's a good base and was for a give-a-way price, so I jumped. Some of the highlights are:
does NOT need a rotisserie or jack-stands
new 2.0L motor
new custom exhaust
FG 916 flares and kit
decent interior w/ un-cracked dash
rare center console that doesn't interfere with my leg or foot!!
shaved side markers
staggered 16X7/16X8 Fuchs w/ new tires F&R
Now I have to sell a couple things. . .

Looks like a great score!!
Addendum to Newtons first law:
zero vehicles on jackstands, square gets a fresh 090 and 1911, cabby gets a blower.
EZ3.6 Vanagon after that.(mounted, needs everything finished) then Creamsicle.

Whoa! VERY nice grab! I've been sitting on one much like it for (gulp!)...TOO LONG now. Your exterior looks straight & square. What year is it?
