    after 5-7 years it is now running. I have not driven it yet. motor damages one winter . zero degrees. left it outside all day. upper valve train did not lube. two -3 years ago I bought another car, wreck. took two and made one. (8,000 miles) but system faults kept it from starting. dealer refused to work on a salvage car. and the Columbus shop that had it was worst ever. so it set. I bought an SD3 Ferrari computer. and today the car is finally running. some bastard cut the crank sensor wire!

    I'm really starting to think that you have the absolute worst luck in the world, or literally everyone you come across is trying to scam / take advantage of you.

    It has been sitting for more than a year. There was only on x employee at that time but the area was not locked. Fixed now so that is all that really counts😊 Probably saved me speeding tickets.

    I was warned by the local shop that the whole NJB MADE TRYING TO INSTALL THE REAR VIEW MIRROR might cause the window to crack. Well this is about the first time it has been driven and no sooner had I gotten in looked there it was.

    You seem to have so much bad luck that there won't be any left for the rest of us. Honestly, if what you're telling us is true then just walk away. Park it in the right part of town with the keys in it.

    whole (hole) (actually delamination) was there when we got it and mirror was on floor..all we did was glue it back on per your request and hope it would hold for a while which it did as that was a couple years ago

    Installed. Car runs perfect. Top works like a new car. All done. Five years and $30,000 later I have a $15,000 car. But I love this car

    poor car, poorer Mitchell. so I took the car to the top shop to show the rounded mechanical bolt that locks the top when the system fails. the top must have all the rivets removed they were just installed. $40 part, $400 labor. too show the problem I put the top 1/2 up. turned the car off and had the guy come out to look...... top will not move. tried everything but relieving the system pressure, that's next.
