Yes to all three. I had seen enough fake S models on Craigslist, that before I even went to see it I verified that it had a correct VIN number. I suppose that I am lucky that the transmission and brakes didn't get swapped along with the engine. One thing I didn't notice until about a week ago is that the rear shocks don't match and the right side sits a little higher than the left.

Rear shocks and springs are one of the few parts I have left on my '01 parts car. I'll probably put them on soon and upgrade later next year.


I'm putting a shopping list together including left and right radiator shrouds and a few other things. I'll text you by Friday.

Also looking over your rear bumper and manual top as upcoming projects.
