Tell the world a little bit about your vehicle
I bought this car with one foot in the grave.Due to lack of interest or money.the previous owner did not maintain the vehicle. Not running, I was assured it would, well. It did after two injectors and plugs.Went at the bodywork preparing for paint. With all this work. I wanted the world to notice this car going by. I painted it light yellow, and resealed the front,side and rear windows. The car has only been driven occasionally to local car shows putting very little mileage on it so the replaced parts are still as new.
