If you spent that much money on your car it either was really neglected to start with or you fixed so many things that likely it won't need anything 'cept regular maintence for a long while.... My thoughts are as long as the older car is not a victim of rust cancer it is worth fixing. thebern, any room for a non-permanent garage? I gotta buddy with a CoverIt www.coverit.com instant garage on a crushed stone bed/floor. Works great and cost like $1500. And you can take it with you! RT
