anyone have links for pics of first gen's? I'm really leaning towards a crazy color that will stand out.









I just picked it up today, thanks to Vosko driving it home for me .

It's in really nice shape, inside and out. Needs a few minor things pesides paint.

I would paint it a nice pearly white, similar to that of the 10th AE. So how much did that bad boy end up costing ya, and whats done under the hood?
