Hi all, decided to show off my Auto, Rosewood 4-door.
It's been through a lot, and I'm glad it's still giving me joy every time I hit the pedal.
Around August '06, I let my buddy borrow it and the car was totalled (because it's old, ya know?). About 2 months later, I got it converted to a 90-91 nose (I liked the grille better) and all was pretty good for a while.
A short while later, timing belt snapped, but spared my valvetrain and head. This car won't die, and I won't let it.
Current modifications:

Didn't work out?-
~Neuspeed Race Springs w/ Tokico Illuminas (came and went in a day, giving it a second shot when I can afford alignment parts and sport springs.)
~Header. Torque was devastated, powerband was shifted too high to be useful and my gas mileage dropped by 5mpg. I'm averaging 24mpg on 89 octane without it.
And finally, PICS!
Dropped for a day, but my wrecked car decided it didn't like that...
So I went back to this...
