If your willing to spend that much would be ideal. I don't have a proper place to store it out of weather. Is that a straight six as well?

That looks great. Doesn't look like there is much to restore on it tho. A black paint job would be cool.

to be honest, we would spend more to get one of the other ones into that kind of shape, my total budget would be around 10,000, think we can do it for that? I haven't talked to my dad yet, going to do that in a minute, biggest thing is safety, handling etc, obviously this isn't a winter car, just a reward for being such a good kid, sound system would be a must for her as you know

Ohh yeah we could do something like that! We would totally get rid of that sunroof.. not cool at all... But as far as it goes make a list of what you want and I can do the rest. What would be your plan on storage?
