Here`s my new project. I got it running today as I want to get it in the garage so that I can fix some things immediately like the back window, the starting problem and so that I can change the oil. I haven`t decided if I`m going to leave this `till the spring or get started on it now but I`d like to be able to keep it outside (and be able to move it around) if I have to.

Needs much, much more, as you can see. Turns out I had my old grille for my GLT still and an extra headlight bezel. Still needs a hood but at least it doesn`t look all smashed up anymore. Actually had a look at the back seat for the first time (It`s all piled up with crap back there) it acutally looks not bad.

Already it doesn't look nearly as sad and pitiful as it did sitting in that ladys' back yard

Good score

Is this the car that got for $200? - if so SCORE. See Greg's post on paint polishing and you'd be good to go. The interior looks like someone's been in there fiddling with the power windows and the drivers seat look uncomfortable, but the rest looks good.

I think it was a score. It runs beautifully asside for the turbo that's shot. There's a lot of little stuff, and the pix don't show it well but the top half of the car is pretty ugly. Not something restorable I wouldn't think.

I forgot to add the pic of the engine compartment

Needs an intercooler and piping too. Hey wait! I have all that stuff along with a turbo... :D
