Cars still sitting there as it has for like 8 years lol.
Got that beat.
Ladyfriend has one about in my way. More so in winter.
Needed a fuel pump when parked. Among other things..
And it's a pain to work on.
About an hour to swap batteries kind of pain.
(The following years model went to an access panel in the trunk to reach fuel pump.)

Moved it one day. Sheared the brake pads that were stuck on the rear by dragging it.
So I'm out there pounding on the rears with a big hammer. And replacing rear brakes , just because I broke them.
Not my junk of which far outnumbers hers. But if it was gone I wouldn't weep.
Heating cooling air doors don't work. Driver window no uppy downy ect.
Plus it was wrecked before she owned it.
Ah well.

Sad part is that car had no problems just wasn't driven. So it was parked there and stayed there for the sun to rot. If it was taken care of that car one day could of had some value but the elements are rough on it

Mehh. Hard tellin till studied.
One will revive well and another be a bottomless pit.
Like most things , the right person would be delighted with it.

Looks mean little to start with an old car. Well cosmetics anyways.
Like a house , you need a good foundation and good bones first.

But $ goes in regardless.

Tell em Jerry!
 

That's really great news. I'm sure your TLC helped out a tad.

It humbles us men when we get shouldered with all the duties.
I know myself the Mrs is this amazing wind up machine that goes and goes.
I know what you mean by getting tired by my going on, just watching her wears me out. 🤣
Been doing that for years now,wife still works and I,m semi retired,not out of choice but folks nowadays want fast and cheap.I,m not either so I,m at home a lot,Whatever needs doing,I do it!

That is so cool, thanks for sharing.
And they said.... That 16,000 PSI on the hull is equal to the weight of a aircraft carrier being on top of it. Also no Submarine in the world can come close to that 7 mile depth.:icon_thumright:
