"Just plain cool"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Emergency brake didn't work.

Needed brake pads.

Some minor surface rust.

Electric choke is a peace of crap! It just doesn't like to idol until it warms up.

General comments?

It handles really, really well! I was driving it home and couldn't believe how well it took my steering input, even with manual steering.

Cruise control is cool, but I'd rather drive myself.

For a 4-banger (I'm use to V8s with over 400 horsepower) it's fairly quick. The engine has a nice sound.

The interior is cool, with a little work and polish and some better speakers it'll be a nice place to spend a few hours in on a road trip.

The bed is great for hauling car parts and stuff, camping (it came with a camper cover), and just general use.

I wish it had a little more storage space behind the rear seats, but other than it's great.

I completely agree with the choke. I have a '84 manual and an 82' auto (for parts) and my 84 doesn't idol at all..
