Nope, not the Chik-Fil-A chick. : )

But I'll be tooling around here before long and if your ride's cool, I'll stop and say hi. And you do the same, always interested in meeting cool folks.

I knew that the odds were against it.

There are plenty of sick rides up your way and since the ratio on here is definitely in your favor, I'm sure you'll have no problem making friends.

But seriously, I'm glad to see another female interested in our cars. There are plenty of great girls/ladies on here that can hold their own with the guys. Look forward to seeing you around the forums, meets, etc.

One of the previous owners cut up parts of the inside for some bad speaker work and some interior trim pieces are missing. The engine needs to be replaced and the wheels are just spray painted.

It's a project, but one that hopefully won't take too long... guess that depends on having the funds available! lol
Wait what?

hmm? It's burning oil pretty bad... smokes like crazy... and the car's got 135k miles on it and one of the previous owners was tinkering around with it.

I thought about rebuilding it, but why when it has that much wear and I can just buy new?

I think the price was going to end up being around the same either way.

and on that topic... if anyone local has a spare engine lying around...

Congrats on the pick-up, good luck with fixing it all up! Doesn't look too bad from that picture.
