So this is funny. April 2019 I officially gave up on the S90z project by selling everything I had to Jared, a really nice guy I met on FB. He bought everything including the box I stored it in for P2.5k. These parts had been sitting up on our condo storage area since 2014 and… Continue reading New S90 Project

Welding of the brake pedal and footrest is finished. The footrest was extended 1.5 inches either side and the brake pedal was shaved on the left side and added about an inch to the right.Â
