Dan, The only thing I would add to Bob's input is the possibility of power = steering. All the mods you're talking of are low-return, hot rodding stuff= for a performance-type enthusiast. It sounds like a great driver I, too, = would like to find-- R&P and suspension mods would cause me some hesitation= ..

I think these options will add to and not detract from the=20 value. Sounds like it has great potential.
