Greta: Not Really a Build so Much as it is a Maintenance Record Build Thread w/BS.

[ryanjboutin]

Hallo alle.


This is the first quick, first European, and first mid engine vehicle I've ever owned, and I absolutely could not be happier with it.
It's funny to think I wasn't old enough to drive when this car came off the assembly line.
