If you paid a thousand dollars for that car a couple thoughts come to mind. The seller was unknowledgable(retard), you stole it in the night or you bought it from your Uncle. :lol:

Looks good.
A buddy of mine bought a '77 4 speed for $1,000. he put about $500 into it and drives it all the time. Granted, it's no show piece, but for $1,500 total investment he can't complian :cool:
