New Cobalt SS Owner WNY

Hi everyone!

Picked up a 2006 Cobalt SS/NA with 150k on the body and 90k on the motor for 2400 dollars last week... What a steal! The engine runs flawlessly but the body surely needs TLC however in upstate NY it is just too cold now to do any serious work. So unfornately I will have to wait until this summer to restore the car to her former beauty. I Will be looking for a lot of spare parts for example the SS/SC spoiler and front and rear lips. I am possibly wanting to go SC'd as well but that's far off from now haha

This dark purple color is going to make it really hard to get parts :/

I'd love to meet up sometime but I might have to bring my LSJ if I don't have the new engine in yet.
