Default Rare SC saved - blk on blk 5 spd

Sat. I drove 8 hours and back up to northern Mass. to pick up an SC. The car is a 95 black on black 5 speed. The car has been sitting in the back of a shop for about a year, because the head gasket blew. A freind of mine told me about it and I expressed an interest in it and I got it at a killer price. My original plan was to take the black interior for my car and put my tan into this car, but I think Im going to keep this car stock.. clean it up and get it road worthy again and sell it. I also have already purchased another motor to put into it. The car can deff use some TLC and cleaning, but its a complete bone stock car. I am very happy with it

sorry about the crappy cell phone pics.. ill get better ones later



When I got there I was surprised to see the sc under about 4 feet of snow. It took me 2 hours to dig it out of the snow and ice.



The hole in the Ice that WAS its home
