fishslap, that is a bloody nice car & what a history as well! It looks like it still has the original Yoko 520's on it, I think it would be worth putting them in storage while they are still in good nick for the future (even on the rims if you can get another set). |

Nice! The EL GT is a sensational looking car. The interior is nice as well. The drivers armrest doesn't look right though. Looks like it's coming apart at the bottom

Those EL GT interiors are sweet as! I didn't think they'd be much nicer than my Ghia interior, but I was wrong. :sm_drool:
