New owner for 0064

I'm just the second owner for 0064.

It will be my daily and I'll drive it a lot, probably over 40k miles per year. I'm absolutely in love with it!
Few mods coming up:
Janspeed manifold with racecat.
KW springs and a little lowering.
Aeroblade whipers and a stubby antenna

Here's a few pics:

Congrats on the pickup and nice mods coming! Just curious, what is the mileage on it now? I'm looking to get one with "high" miles for a GP, but want to drive it as much as you plan to. Enjoy it!

No I haven't, I've seen the garage you're talking about I think.

He's an American if I remember correct, and I'm from the Netherlands

I've fitted a Janspeed exhaust manifold yesterday. Made a little video:
