The story

I drive this car as a daily. I enjoy this car very much, and frequently take road trips with it. I bought the car in Zumbrota MN, with 80k on it in 2010. Soon after, the car has never seen salt again as it has resided west most of its life. I have done all maintenance myself, and have put 176000 miles on it since purchase. I have turned nearly every bolt on this car, and has kept me occupied in my down time, in a good way.

I enjoy working on this car, even when I have problems. It's a fun driver, and super easy to work on compared to any modern truck/car I know of. There's so much room everywhere to work! · Nebula7
