    I'm sure that little beauty looks better now than when it rolled off the showroom floor.

    Only in California??? How did you see that one? Cars like that have made things harder on all of us! When I was going through registration, cars like this were specifically mentioned by the state trooper who inspected mine.. They have stepped up efforts to prohibit things like this from ever seeing the road here in Mass.

    Now maybe it's mechanically sound and safe, I don't know - never seen it.. but it sure looks bad, things like those door latches just scare me! Oh, and check out the gas tank next to the radiator with the fan wiring flapping against the mount!

    The closest it would get to the road down here,,is the distance between the trailer deck it's sitting on and the road..

    Around here you may get plates and insurance on it BUT I'd bet you loose it all when you take it out.

    I don't know when to give up, am trying to get body work done on '76 GMC 2WD 1/2 tonne pick-up, but rust gets ahead of me...daily driver, should be in a shop/garage and 2nd car/vehicle to drive while work done...no $$$ Winter Hard and Cold...Cab Corners are Gone, and Roof is Rusted and Dimpled, steel probably tempered from high speed grinder use...Opps..me bad, want to use bondo, but think new Panels, door skins, and so forth should be replaced with New (Made in Taiwan) parts...

    Does any of this make any sense? I am wondering now if I should invest in another vehicle, Shut Down the project and cut the losses while I can/should... :-(

    Sure it makes sense! but only you can decide when it stops making sense!! If you don't have any emotional attachments, then scrap it and buy some late model that won't need anything for a long time... Then you can find something older to pour money into! LOL..

    after the worst winter in my 58 years existence i am slowly getting back to a somewhat normal life .. i dont know if my posting will increase .. i have noticed that my enthusiasm for hot rodding has greatly diminished .. i dont even read the car craft and hotrod mags i get ..the fact that i cant see them without a magnifying glass does`nt help .. i finally got the mustang back together 2 weeks ago .. did a doughnut in front of the state trooper down the road .. he got a little upset about it ..i dint know he was home ...iv`e had my stang and pinto for 10 years now .. longer than anything iv`e ever owned .. here is the stang getting washed ..

    I think we all go through a period where we lose interest and find other things to do.. then we pick it up again until the next ebb & flow like the tides.
