In any case, it needs to be clean and well-serviced and maintained. I'm not looking for a project. Thanks.



Why no modified ? I have a supercooper but it's FAR from stock but probably 300hp. Ooooooor there's this BEAUTIFUL car...
And not fluffing my car but I doubt there's many out there that have replaced even half of what I have on mine ,lol..it's a hobby for me , anything n everything I can I will and I have..

I'm looking for a daily driver with as much reliability baked in as possible.

if your willing to spend legit I've gone through my car top to bottom and list of new parts that are maximum of 3yrs only from complete ps system , head , cam , timing components , dang near entire suspension with performance adjuable stuff so if your streets suck raise it up as it will go higher than stock even ,all ignition, almost every sensor related to fueling and air ratios ect....once I replace the ac compressor as ones intermittent and put on a new axle cuz boots on old one have a tear in one it legit needs absolutely nothing.. I just took it on a 600mile round trip 0 issues what so ever..
heres a video ,since the video i put in a coolerworx shifter and new shifter bracket n cleaned up n lubed the cables .
the OOOOOONLY thing i havent replaced yet is the clutch as its been perfect too buuuut i did change the trans and fear fluids out with full synthetics. I legit legit would trust my car to drive anywhere AND pushed hard and run just as it would a stock one.. it's set to be a dailydriver but if you want some weekend fun it's got the potential to sleigh..
