Please welcome a new addition to the crew! Ended up selling my subaru, found this guy for a fair price. I promise I didn't specifically search for white and blue, just got lucky lol
130,000 original miles, california truck. Planning on getting it ready for the winter underneath and inside the body panels with a generous helping of fluid-film, unfortunately it's my DD so it'll have to go through some michigan winters for a bit...
In other news I re-sprayed the paint for the gimbal housing and transom plate, I painted them a few years ago but they ended up getting scratched in storage...
Also, I designed a block-off plate for the exhaust that I plan to have laser cut in stainless, they are readily available out there for anything alpha and up, but not for anything MC-1 so I had to design my own.
All for now.
