  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    That's the same car located on Long Island NY and sold to someone in Ohio back last summer. I believe it sold on Ebay for over $2,500

    I remember seeing it too. Ain't it the one that was pulled from a pond by a wrecker and put it for auction?

    Doesn't look any worse than mine when I bought it. :TU:

    People look at cars in all different ways.
    Take the seats for example...
    If the seats are there... it doesn't matter if they are TOTALLY completely wasted and disgusting , or just ripped in several places. You're still going to buy pads and covers right?
    Regardless if the convertible top has a little tiny tear or it's completely falling apart.. you're still going to replace the top, right?
    Same rule applies to 90% of the cars parts. :Do No:


    I say restore it! :TU:

    Rick you are absolutely correct!
    I restore cars for a living and what you state is the way it is.
    Most people are visual creatures and pass on good cars because they may not look pretty but are solid and restorable project cars.
