last pic....do you guys think I should keep the car totally original?? The car now has a cowl hood, although it did not come with one...and I was originally thinking of adding the RS option...?? Now thinking otherwise...???

Wowwwww...2 years of auto body dust really has made for some crud on the frame and motor...Im not gonna do a frame off just yet...The car ran great when I brought it to the shop, so I just want to paint it now and detail the engine and frame the way it is...Whats the best way to clean this crud off??

I would get it out of there and find someone interested in actually working on it.
Does this car have any documentation? Any pics of the rear axle code and engine stamp?

Had the same problem with a GN. Took it to a body shop for basically a paint job. Excuse after excuse. Finally after 14 months car was finished. After cleaning it up for countless hours,it was still blowing dust out of air vents 2 years later. Under the dash never got cleaned unless you wanted to tear everything down. With hard times the way they are, there should be plenty of shops to go to. I would get the car out ASAP
