Wow, that car is shiny! And only 2.5k on it. Amazing. The interior is looking great! Congratulations (again)!

The way I see it, if you're gonna drive around in a car, why not do it with some style?

On the "firewall" - the rear bulkhead of the engine bay, next to the ignition resistor. Should be a red dot, usually the size of a dime/penny and pretty sloppily applied.

My cousin is actually named Tim. As for me, ? ? ? ? == K y l e, not terribly clever, but it works.
But yes the recalls is one of the things I'm going to have DMCCA look at when I take it in for a more thorough inspection.
And thanks for the welcome!

Red paint mark on an 83? I always thought the 83 was after the recall so it was done during its build? Where would the mark be?
