I plan to go different route than I normally would. I needed a new DD since my last DD got overwhelmed. The hatch got too low and with all the construction out by my house now, I'm taking additional 15min detours to get everywhere...

So I got a call from my uncle about the RL that he has. It was hit on the driver's side and needs a new upper ball joint, fender, and headlight. Got 2 small issues besides that, but a full detail and a little PDR and she will turn out great.
I picked it up yesterday I won't make any performance changes except for maybe small stuff, intake and such, but otherwise I will get a set of wheels, lip kit, and a DECENT drop, not slammed.

This is what I would like for it to eventually be. And yes, the car is Black with Black leather interior. :bouncy:

Not a bad purchase for $300. Yes... Three Hundred.

New fender and headlight should be here soon and the ball joint is a quick fix... looking for a decent set of wheels for now and a nice drop and tint ASAP.

fun car, pretty fast for that old of car and the weight
The pic you have posted is for a different year RL, different hood, tail lights, etc but similar

Thats a CRAZY bargain for $300!! Congrats
