Post by: OneBadZuk on March 07, 2005, 02:22:57 PM: I don't have a digital camera to take any pics. Is there any way to describe the front suspension to see if it's a sport or not? A friend of mine said it might have been just a sticker kit that was added with "sport" in it, he also said he didn't think that the "sport" was introduced until the later 90's.
