'64 with sunroof. Every fender is dented, the hood doesn't close right, the paint is faded and chipped, the shifter is creaky, the steering wheel is crooked, the driver's side rear pan is rusted completely through in one spot, but the heater channels are solid, I just hit 82 mph with it on the highway coming back to work, then the oil light didn't even flicker at idle after 15 minutes of highway driving (and yes, the light works), it doesn't blow smoke, the transmission feels solid as a rock, and the sunroof and windows all crank open and closed. My new daily driver. WAHOOOOOOO!!!!!!!
I'm baaaaaaack...... :-)

Only one pic so far and it's supposed to be from 3 years ago when the PO bought the car (California titled supposedly) from the woman who owned it before he did:

the DOT-approved ethernet cable in 06.jpg... :-)Oh, YES I noticed the nice glass fuel filter on the pressure side ofthe pump and that will be fixed immediately.
Not bad! You know, instead of limiting your driving range to what is the longest CAT5 cable combination you can find, you could set your car up for Wireless pretty cheap.... gives you a bit more freedom and you don't need to worry about the neighborhood kids unplugging your cable just as you are trying to download some maps to find your way back home...
;) Just trying to help. Jan

NICE.
I see potential here.... Another Baja? Drag racer? A show-off? Or does this one stay as a daily driver?
I'm looking forward to read your adventures again ;o) Roger
