	The car has good tires, the correct rims, trim rings and center caps,
	maroon paint, black vinyl interior, no cracks in the dash, and is reli-
	able.  The interior is in good condition but needs new carpets.  I ran 
	the car at PMI drag strip one day to see how it would do
	and ran a 13.29 second run at 105mph on street tires, shifting at 5500
	rpm without banging gears, and having quite a bit of traction problems
	for the first two gears.  I have run in two autocrosses in F street
	prepared class.  I finished third once and second the next time.  It
	does handle quite well as I beat an 88 vette in the first autocross.
	I am selling the car to finance buying another vette.

	Price: $14,000.
