Scrolling through the Craigslist, as usual, I found this ad for an 85 300D. Price was cheap enough, so I figured I'd go look and find a rusted out car like mine. Nope, solid floors, solid suspension points, etc.. We settled on a price, and he drove it to me. I was going to swap everything over and junk mine. There are minor rust spots (battery tray area, fender bottoms, etc..), but having solid floors was the major reason I bought it. Now I will have an extra motor and transmission, and need to find something to do with them. This new one is wearing the inner sides of the front tires out, and when he was coming up the driveway, I noticed it cambering badly. I'm not all about "stance", or whatever ricers want to call it, so I need to get that fixed very soon. Here's the first pic, new one is on the right, old one on the left.
