I have a very low mile 94 sitting in the barn I got from Craig, which I used to own then sold him and got it back. It hit a curb or something and did some damage to the right side suspension. I am not sure if I will be able to fix it as supposedly it bent the body where the control arm attached. I need to do something with that car.
