The car runs and drives but needs a new suspension, the radiator shroud is toast, the fuel tank cover is toast, and there is alot of rust on some small parts. Engine smokes a little so Id like to tear into that as well. After adding it all up I figured why not go with the body off it would make it easier to get to stuff.

I see a lot of Tylenol in your future.



Corvettes and women are the same...You want to make love to them but they keep breaking down.
