Very prescient!



I tidied up the car (more than a few mouse turds, unfortunately) and posted the ad last night, asking: $1600. Honest description with pics of the holes.

The last line in the ad: "If you don't own a welder, don't even bother replying to this ad. Seriously!"

I've already had 6 inquiries.

The best way to save this car would be to find a rust-free shell (probably from the States), cut the bottom out of it & do a floor transplant.
