I am looking to buy a used 240sx convertible and checked out a couple 240's this weekend and I have a question. There was a sticker on the door saying "this car has been modified by ASC...." or something to that effect. There is one on ebay right now and I asked and it also has the sticker. In all cases the people said it had not been in an accident. Do you know what this sticker is? I thought at first it meant the car had been wrecked and ASC repaired it but now I am not so sure. Any ideas?

ASC is a company that modifies automobile chassies for convertible tops.

Quote form article about the New Toyota Camry Solara Convertible for http://www.carenthusiast.com

Quote »The Solara convertible will be built in a dual process. A coupe body shell will be built at TMMC(Toyota Motor Manufacturing), then trucked to the nearby ASC facility. ASC will remove the top and perform convertible-specific structural reinforcement. The body then will be trucked back to TMMC where it goes through the entire paint process and is fitted with running gear and interior. The car returns to ASC for final detail work including interior trim, quarter windows and convertible top installation.[/quote]I had no idea what ASC was and i found the info in 1 minute of searching the internet.

Todays lesson children is that the internet is one step lower then god for answers. Ask it first before you ask others.:)
