That old 6-cylinder was still running pretty at the end, the tranny, too! It wouldn't have taken much work to get her into another derby, but the process of getting a car ready proved very therapeutic for me. I'd rather start fresh. I've wanted to do this since I was 6, and loved every minute. Big ole shiat eatin' grin on my face the whole time. Consider me hooked.
