Been sitting on this car for about 4 years. Progress has been slow but in the last 6 months, things have been moving. I thought it was going to be on the road 2 summers ago but it looks like summer of 2014 it should finally be ready. Still plenty of detailing left but I enjoy that sort of stuff. Got a set of new tires/rims to bolt on and gonna refresh the interior. Car had a lot of little things that needed attention but the selling point for me was the 24K original miles. Most NSX's you find now have 100K, 150K, & 200K miles on them unless you want to pay out of this world prices for a low mileage original.

It's the factory Acura R77 paint which is a Tri-coat. Has the red base, then a mixture of red & clear, then clear. It offers up a very deep color.

500-1000 miles a summer I'm hoping for on both of these cars.
