I picked up this beast for a local dealer for 350. It was it pretty piss poor shape. The paint was all faded and the interior stunk like a wet dog. Whoever owned it before ripped out the ignition and everything on the column. They then jerry rigged up and new ignition where the cig lighter went and a toggle for lights.... but hey the stereo works! LOL! The wheel bearings are toasted I can tell by the roar as I drive it down the road and the engine was lacking tune up in ages. 172,000 on the odo however the speed o cable was disconnected so who knows how many mystery miles it has.
So I bought her and took her home and hit her with some rubbing compound and the shine came back. I gave her a full tune up as well as a valve cover gasket and oil pan gasket and a engine degreaser make over. Running wise this car is perfect. The engine is surprisingly strong and the tranny is just as well. I took the interior out yesterday and scrubbed them down only to find out that my interior was blue and gray instead of just gray or brown like my rear seat. I have some surprising things in store down the road. Keep your eyes on this one.

It's a good thing you don't read the stickies, you might of learned something.
