corrado77 0 Posted March 17, 2006 Hello, Excuse for my bad english but I'm leaving in France. For the little history, please find here after my first Corrado.... I bought it in january 2005...after an accident at 140Km/h...it's hard... Very hard...it was missing 30 cm of rims and... the drive shaft was tearing off from the gear box... But I wanted her and luckly, I have some good friends to help me. I buy another green corrado with a death supercharger to have some spare parts and we give a second life to my Red corrado. Poor supercharger... They have done all that in a WEEK END... Look at that : Life is beautiful no !!!! Thank you very much my friends... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
