Re: [Peugeot-L] Fast 405 wagon in Redwood City?

Must be some around. In the late 90's I put a mi16 motor in a nice 405 wagon body. Repainted it and everything. It was jet Black with a nice red leather interior. I came across the really nice sport wheels (a factory option) which I wish I still had. The car was wicked fast, and beautiful, but a series of minor issues and bad timing in the "what can I keep" car department led me to sell. If the car you saw was black, let me know. I'd be happy to know it was still around.
