    Matt's Se-i

    Ok, so I've been a member on here long enough without having any pics of my car. I just replaced the rear calipers with new ones that I painted. I also removed the brackets and painted them. So here I am, finally posting pics. You'll Notice that there is no rust on my car which is impressive being from KY and WV. I'm the third owner, and the second Matthew Alan Smith that has owned this car. Weird huh? It has 232,000 miles, and is pretty much stock. The paint could use a facelift, as the clearcoat has been peeling for a few years. The leather is in OK condition up front, we won't talk about the back.


    The Car:




    The Leather



    Old Caliper




    New Caliper

    It's not for sale or the gifting, only for the keeps. In other words, forget about it forrest89sei. :-)

    Indeed, except leather is harder to upkeep.

    That's the truth. I bought this car two summers ago for 500 bucks it didn't run (Needed fuel pump). The people let it sit for two years and that's when it got the fade spots on the paint and it's also when the back seat dry rotted. :-( I bought the car out of necessity and have ended up liking it a good bit. If the seats weren't leather they'd probably still be in pretty new condition. I ended up cutting most of the leather off the back seat just because it was so uncomfortable to sit on.

    No, I don't have any engine pics. I'll try to get some. It's decent under the hood though.
