Best of all its paid for

I'm completely amazed, my mechanic took the valve cover off and inspected the components and was amazed at how clean it was, the chains have no slop, only minor thing is the tranny has a little quirk when shifting cold but goes away immediately after warming up.

She is a keeper and come better weather she is heading to the body shop for a face lift!
