I did have to put a couple hundred back into the car to rebuild the supercharger,and do the LIM and valve cover gaskets.I am under $500 total as of now.The car runs perfect,when I got it home all I had to do was clean the MAF sensor to get it to start. Tim

Thanks everyone,as for mileage,well when I bought it it would not start and the guy told me it had 120,000 miles,turns out it only has 104,000.I concider that low miles,at least compared to my 92 SE which has 216,000miles on the clock.It needs some touchup work here and there,plus the rear bumper cover is from the U-pull it yard near me and it isn't exactly a perfect match color wise,but almost knowone notices but me :roll: Thanks again,better pics next time. Here's a few engine pics

I'm more than jealous! You have an amazingly clean engine bay, and the mileage really is low!
