If Austin was someone off the street I would not be saying this. However I do know him, and have known him for many years. I can tell you, if he built it, its dead reliable. If you note in his craigslist posting, he did list all that was done. For easier reading I am posting the add below. Austin if you want you can copy your add into your first post. Also considering there are 2 sets of wheels and tires as well as the Factory Sunroof Bag I'd say its a well above average Formula. P.S. Austin just a tip, we have had several local cars especially modded or 88's sell back east for well above local market prices. I think the last Formula went for around $6500 so you might want to put this on some online places on the east coast as well. The cars get shipped from that place on Annices island via train car. So all you have to do is take it down drop it off and away it goes.

The Bad. The paint's not perfect, there are chips and small blemishes as you would expect from a car that's 24 years old. The window dew wipes could use replacing.
