Watch out for water in the tank. If it runs rough below half a tank you may need to drain it.

Well my hat is off to Lee, he brought by his new project today for me to take a look...and all I can say is WOW! I saw the car before he purchased and knew the condition, and you would never know it is the same car. He has done an amazing job of bringing this car back to life! It has low mileage, and now it looks like it! Congrats Lee, hope it keeps a smile on your face for years to come! AP1 FTW!!!

I replaced the cabin air filter a few minutes ago. When I pulled the old one out, I felt I needed to call a hazmat team.There was so much in the filter it is a wonder any air got through.
Thanks Randy for your comments. I'm still working on her.

Yeah those air filters are something out of a horror movie.

IMO the rear spoiler is crucial to an AP1's appearance. The visual difference is stunning. The AP1 front lip has the same effect on me; night and day difference in aggressiveness appearance with one installed. Car looks great!
