I just bought a 1996 Tracker with 78k miles, most were towed behind a motor home. It’s a red 5 speed manual 2WD and looks just like yours. It’s a Texas rust free car and kept inside all its life, it looks like a car that is maybe 3 years old. It has the 16 valve motor with 95 HP and runs great. I was actually looking for a smart car when I ran across it on marketplace. I just yesterday filled it up for the second time and it registered 31.6 and 34.2 MPG. I am an old drag racer and have a 1978 Chevy BIG10 swb 454 that I bought new and pull my 26 ft. enclosed race car trailer with. I also have a 2015 ZL1 Camaro that averages around 18 mpg so I was looking for something small that gets good gas mileage. A racing buddy has a smart car that he uses for a run around car and I thought I would get one but found the Tracker instead and I’m glad I did because I like a rear wheel drive manual transmission vehicle. I will make a KZbin video when I get time. Mine also has the fiberglass hard tops.

Beautiful tracker man. I haven't seen wire wheels since the mid 2000s. I used to run a set of cheap 13" reversed luxors I bought through lowrider magazine. 😂. Those were the days. Glad to see people are still running them.

Good job! How does it ride? Looking at 0:55 (before) and 4:31 (after) there is quite a difference! Before, the bottom of the body molding is about level with the top of both rims. After, the top of the body molding is about level with the top of the back rim and maybe, 2" below the top of the front rim. From that it looks it was lowered 2-3" in the back and 4-5" in the front.
@RJWilson2 жыл бұрын
Not going to lie, it rode pretty rough in the front. It didn’t have much travel on the shock
@tighttdasbino2928 Жыл бұрын
I do understand and think it looks great lowered but the raised look is my vibe. Specially around here with all these creatures in the earth some call pot holes. Honestly I'm really glad that there are still some around. Thinking about getting one for a daily beater. Very nice look on yours. 👍🏾
