I've always wanted to have my car featured in a magazine article but I guess this is as close as I will get. Last october a guy came up to me at the local car clubs car show and started talking to me about my 91. He said he wanted to do an article in the news paper blah, blah, blah. I was bored so I talked to him for probably about a half hour figuring he was full of BS. He said he would send me a copy of the paper but I never really thought anything else about it and don't get the paper because it is for the next town over. Well today I remembered it for some reason at work and did a search on the news papers website and to my suprise he actually did write an article about it. The article itself made me lol though. Just read it. American racing wheels? WTF? Either way its still cool:beer:

Congrats! Good feeling to see something you've worked hard on in a mag or newspaper. Close as I ever got was a tiny pic of my coupe in MM+FF back in 96-97 from Atlanta Dragway's FFW. Pop's 93 red Lightning (back then) got a pic too in the same issue. :)

Yes mine has been converted. There was only 1 NC SSP that had black interior according to records. Mine was blue with blue. But not all NC SSP's had red.
