SoCal CB7
My First Car, I'm 16 and this my daily driver CB7, aka Jasmine. I planned on keeping it as a daily driver but now I have been inspired to do a full race build. I bought her for $1150 in "drivable" condition on August 5, 2011. She needed alot of work (i was told by my mechanic AFTER i bought it) but the seller said it just needed AC servicing. But now its my project build so its getting "restored" and done right! Will post progress and updates.
