I think you got a killer deal. Try not to do to much to change it. Cars like that aren't easy to find. Unmolested cars are hard to find

The spoiler for that year would go good with those ralley wheels. Um, I think you are thinking about "that other car" called the 'Maro. Spoilers were not an option on our 'birds. Please don't put any spoilers on your pristine 'bird. It might 'spoil' it.
