This is how she looked back in the 90s. You can definitely tell I was a teenager from some of the styling choices! I used to drive this car to work every day, racking up 100 miles daily. The V6 engine didn't last long with that kind of use, and it eventually gave out. It sat in my driveway for about a year before I decided to start restoring it.

I found some old pictures from those days. Hopefully, I'll dig up more someday. No digital cameras back then, so it’s a bit of a treasure hunt!
