Craigslist FTW. It's only been in the barn for a year or two, so I don't know if I'd go so far as to call it a barn find. I have no idea how many miles on it, I didn't look or ask. Under the dust and bird shit is a very solid, 4cyl automatic car. I didn't look underneath it, but I gave the floor a good pound and don't think I have anything to worry about. Doors and the htch are good. I need to start collecting parts to put a V8 in it. Interior is ok, will have to see how well it cleans up. The price was right. I don't even haggle. Foureyeds have been growing on me lately and this came up as the right deal at the right time.

Got her home today. No issues dragging it home. Crawling under it to disconnect and reconnect the trans linkage I found the car to be solid as a rock. No rust in the floor pans. None. Nada. Zilch.
9My 1990 California car that saw one Wisconsin winter (I was told) has rot in the floors. Not much, but it's there.) This POS 4 banger is pristine underneath. Torque boxes, wheel arches, strut towers, hood and door jams are rock solid. Doors and hatch are good.


Needs a headliner and a dash pad. One small tear in the drivers seat, rest of the interior show some sear, but looks like it will clean up nice.

Three core radiator in it (I may toss that into my '90). Put the battery charger on it for an hour and dumped some gas down the carb. Turned the key, well actually I used a screw and pushed the ignition switch forward to the "on" position and then pressed the starter button this is where the lighter should be; and the engine spun twice and fired right up. Runs pretty good. Couple carb issues. I drove it to the gas station. Got some funny looks washing the windows on it at the gas station.

Found an old bra in the back, some KFC cornbread muffins, and half a pack of Kools under the seat.

You have to put up a pic after just washing it so we can see what kind of gem you got there.

Wouldn't say I washed it, but I did take a garden hose to it. The paint is chalky, it's been hit with a rattle can in a few spot and it got a few door dings.

Yeah, 19 year old chick. Mom is a MILF. I knocked on the door, she answered. I said "Hi, I'm here about the mustang." I listened real hard to hear any "boomchickawawow" music but none was to be heard.

No. If it was a pair of panties they would be hung from the mirror for as long as I owned the car.
