Tee hee!

BadAndy is out at a job site right now, and met an employee of that company who is selling a 79 Monte Carlo for $700.

Shit.

The thing is insured and is running, Bad Andy says it looks good from the pics.

He'll get more details from the guy after he's done with his job. If the body is in good shape its worth $700 just to sit in my garage and gradually be rebuilt (oh, and BadAndy wouldn't have any fun at all doing that, nope - can you sense my sarcasm?).

Hee hee, I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

"learn a lesson from lepidosiren and make sure there is no hidden rust. "

That's the big problem with buying old cars in MA . . . too much time spent driving in the snow.

I'm hoping that having Andy with me (since he's a mechanic and has done body work) will help with this. There has got to be a reason that the thing is only $700 . . . I'm hoping its because its not a hot rod and has lots of miles on the engine.

I know back in 92 mine didn't have any rust, but that was a long time ago. Here's hoping they hold up! I had a regal in 93 similar to R's car and back then the thing was rusty (not to mention, had a shitty engine that seized on me 6 months after I bought the thing).

OK, I'll stop geeking :)

It works so well off-road. I'm so psyched to drive it in the snow.
