Default ITR Restoration Story ... ITR w/ black roof

I've been searching and I cannot seem to find the link to the story about the ITR that was restored from a complete loss due to fire. It was the ITR that was finished and wound up with a black roof and white body w/ JDM Front end.

Does anyone have this link bookmarked? Thanks a lot.

Yup. Sweet... way to stick with it and not give up.
Guess its' name is Phoenix.... woulda been perfect if he painted it PY.

I'll bet the reactions at that car show must have been priceless. Just seeing it at a show with the burn picture next to it .... jaws would be bouncing off the floor!
