Resore Thread : http://www.3sgto.org/3000gt-stealth-...ion-build.html
Car has been 90% restored / rebuild. There was noting wrong with the car when I purchased it other than light surface rust on the underside of the car, third gear needed a new syncro so I had the trans rebuilt. Every part on the car except the rear suspension has been media blasted and powder coated with Zinc primer and either Black or Silver coating. Adding Zinc primer in addition to the top coat adds yet another layer of protection. When I say all parts other than the rear cross member I everything such as.
1). All rear Bumper parts and brackets
2). All Front Bumper parts and brackets
3). All front sub frames and brackets.
4). Various engine brackets, Battery tray parts, ABS brackets all parts inside the fenders.

2). All original gauges and faces.
3). Interior is very clean only traditional wear on the driver side out side bolster (Can be repaired by a fabric place that re-stains leather no rips on drive seat.) One small rip easily fixed by a fabric shop on the rear of the passenger seat about the size of a dime.

4). New dash vents installed no cracks. Dash and all interior components in near mint shape.
5). Sunroof, Mirrors, Windows, Rear Wiper, Front Wipers, hatch, all switches, cruise control, radio controls, all in perfect working condition.

7). All Seat belts work as they should, the drivers side is a little weak retracting.
8). All rear interior plastics are in really good shape with the proper screw cover caps.
9). Paint in very good shape has some chips that were touched up with color matched paint. Nothing major normal wear.

10). New power antenna works as it should.
11). All OEM systems work including rear AWS (steering)
A few things the car needs
1). AC needs to be recharged it was drained when the car was rebuilt (Can have recharged for $150)
2). Drives perfectly just needs a slight alignment.
3). Tires still have decent tread on them but should be replaced after another season.
