Well, I won't take credit for this, my father spent a few hours on this one. This was all done by hand. the paint job is def shot, but for what it is, it looks a HELL of a lot better. It still could use a power buffer and more work, but it looks much more respectable now. this week we redid some of the hardware in the rear brakes, adjusted the rear brakes, bled the whole brake system, replaced the IAC, replaced the TPS and set voltage, fixed vacuum leaks, fixed steering rack leaks, and set the timing. It now purrs like a kitten and runs like a champ...Not bad for a $1200 car eh?
BEFORE: During: Here is a shot from the front, not too shabby eh? PIC of my father next to the car...going strong at 62 years

And a final shot of the rear. Note we put the SSP wheel on. I noticed a huge bubble in the sidewall of the tire, and had to put the spare on. I LOVE The way it looks with the steel SSP wheel. Now I just have to find 4 more!!!

I agree with both of you. Can't beet it for the price and after the polish it looks like an entirely new car. Hurray for your dad going strong at his age.
