    It would take a good amount of work to bring this one back to really good condition, but it looks solid enough to be a driver quality car. I bet there are a good few years of life left in the old girl.

    This one will probably end up in a derby.

    The distance should keep the brokedick derby hicks from ruining this one, as those characters seem to coagulate around the upper Midwest.

    We're moving to the upper midwest! :slap:
    Actually if the price comes down a bit and that wagon runs well it's not bad as a driver. A little touch up paint and it will last several more years as is.
    Then I could sell it to the good ole boys around the Peoria stock car track.:evilsmile:

    Never stopped the tweakers in San Diego. They steal anything they can get their hands on.

    There's a metal scrap yard about five miles from us. Son said scrap is around only $4 a hundred now.
    Whatever we take, mostly aluminum cans, we have to show ID and we've been there regularly. But my wife looks suspicious!;)
