By popular acclaim and by the power invested me, as sheriff of SHO's; I do hereby proclaim Carter Fujibayashi the Sept '02 SHO of the Month
Buford
General Information:
1997 Ebony Satin SHO - 112k on body/chassis - 18,000 on New motor
Options:
Preferred Equipment Package 211B
No Leather, No Cell Phone I bought the car with 70,000 miles on her, it was
"Love at first sight" in February of 2001. The test drive was of
course icing on the cake. I traded a '92 Lumina Euro with 197,000 miles for the
SHO. The first thing I did was work on the lighting since I believe you can
never have enough. Then I went to work on getting more power. The idle days were
spent finding subtle appearance items to set her apart from the other dozen or
so Gen 3's in this town of 80,000+. 16,000 on the new crate motor after the
dreaded camsprocket failure destroyed my original motor. Build Date: October 96
