I found this car on a thread that was posted in the mid atlantic forums on tuners. This is a one owner car that a nice lady owned, she darn near cried when we took it. Originally a west coast car the owner relocated to Virginia after leaving a Mitsu dealer in the late nineties. The car had a balance shaft belt break and developed a strong vibrations in the motor, so she regretfully had a local mechanic do a timing job on it. It lasted 100 miles then slipped and took out the head and number one piston. The mechanic was supposed to make it right but the car sat for almost ten years in the process. Well now here she is and I am getting ready to drop a refreshed engine back in her an keeping it stock for a dd. I think it was a good $500.00 investment.
And since my summit has seen it's better days it's getting most of it's parts donated to my awd colt swap and the gvr4. This will leave basically a rolling shell if anyone is interested in some parts off of it.
