Let me say as most others have already, you have done an incredable job! I could only imagine what our's would look like in your hands..... As for your original post, some 9 pages back, who says you can't make chicken soup outa chicken shit :dontknow:..... I can see someone doing half assed work, but to then sell it to someone, that's pretty f^cked up to say the least.....

Keep Up the Nice Work :not worthy:,

Heres how I spent my 56th birthday today. I thought I might as well pull the motor as there were only a couple of bolts left to do and it would be easier than working around it to get at the rust.Needs new mounts and a good clean anyway Not sure what I'll find when I strip the heater :dontknow:

Mart, I'm new to this forum and I just read this post. Circumstances and an unscrupulous seller certainly dealt you a rotten hand, but I am amazed at your determination and positive attitude. I am very impressed with the job you're doing and can't wait to see the finished car.

Keep up the good work and please keep the posts coming.
