MikeyB928 Posted April 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2010 thanks guys, I was really shocked when i first went to look at it, found a posting on craigslist and there weren't any pics so i wasn't really expecting much but much to my surprise, i have all the original service records, owners manual, etc. I even got the original window sticker. I thought it was worth the investment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fuckin hate 1990, I can't figure out the tach, I believe 1990s are the only year with a noise filter? But welcome fellow dsmer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fubar231 Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 One of the cleaner looking DSM's (Looks to be rust free?) Welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC K9 Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Welcome fellow DSM'er. Looks just as clean if not just a tad cleaner than mine. Same color scheme. Very nice man. Also props for doing the work yourself. It can be challenging. If you need the clutch pedal assembly removed to have it welded I can help you out with that as I just dide mine so I am fairly comfortable doing it again. + rep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyB928 Posted April 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 The only rust it has is in the door jams, a small 1 inch circle on both sides near the door switch, other than that the body is rust free, small dent in the fuel door (easy fix with a new one), a small one below it, and 3 small dents in the b-pillar where someone tried to break into it which i'm sure set off the factory alarm that still works, very surprising for a car that was originally sold in Columbus and spent its life between here and Marysville, the clear coat is faded a little on the rear quarters but its not too bad.
