Is that a pin stripe on that TII?

if it is must have been sold as a used car, pinstripe adds $500 to the price of the car back then....

pinstripe is also a good way to get out of repainting a whole panel when doing repairs

Ya I saw a vert about a week ago that had pin striping, unless the guy did it himself.

there is a bare spot (no rust though, just thinner paint) on the sunroof, i want to eventually get the car repainted, but in the same color... its gonna be such a sleeper... i love it.

hopefully i'll get a job soon out of college, and be able to do a fmic this summer and change to a n/a hood.

thanks... i know the car was origionally from texas, according to mazda. Their service records go from 1987 to december 1990. The kid whom i bought it from was in New Jersey. He said the car came from the origional owner who moved to ohio. it has only seen one winter out of a garage if the story is true.
