Johnny,
The ultimate project car? Well, I was thinking of fixing it, but then changed after looking over the entire car. There was rust in places I would never though of looking. This one came from NYC and the salt from the many winters had taken it's toll, not to mention the presence of multiple theft deterrent systems installed. When has one come across a car with not one, not two but three different anti-theft devices?
The car was simply abandoned from too many butchering jobs in the engine bay and rust repairs. Even I tried to get it going, but the started had failed right after it spun a few times with gas squirted down the intake pipes. Oh well...but most of it's parts still live on in other cars.
