General comments?
This car sat in a family members front yard for three years before I asked if I could have it. I received the car for free, and sent it to the shop to get fixed. The car has a decent amount of rust on it, but coincidentally, the interior is in perfect condition. I put $1,000 into it and the car runs like a dream. Like I previously stated, the car looks pretty ugly with the rust and faded paint, but when you're driving it, it seems like a new car. I love this car and hopefully it will continue to run well. My '99 Tahoe is always broke down, so I depend on this car more than that. Great car overall, so far, so good.
