great looking car, very solid...

do you have any no-rust repair sections that would be useful in my rustoration in any of those tubs?
I'll build you a Ljet harness for trade...for coming down and helping me.
Also if you want, we can house you and your father if need be at my place, mom said so.

I will check with my dad about hotel/house and see what he says. He says the earliest he can take vacation on is the first week in june... the only reason they are tubs is because the have cracked in half the rust is so bad.. actually the rust on the 72 was just on the seams..so it could have been fixed...but I just felt like seeing how it felt to cut one up.
Sexy car grasshappa. 
Really like the first photo, too.

Very nice ! Enjoy ! 
Those really are some great pictures. The car looks great, and nice grass too!
Looks great 
nice example of a 1.8L (?). is that an a/c compressor that i see attached?
Looks like Pecan trees to me. Right?
I'm glad to see you have it running Barry.
I have a set of Mahle alloys for sale if you want to upgrade the wheels.

thanks guys! Type47, yes that was an air compressor attached to the engine. It got removed prior to intalling the engine, and had to change the engine tin too 
...URY, yup those are pecan trees, they about about 6 years old now. We also just planted fourty more pecan tree recently. 
Chris, thanks for the offer. But I bought some nicely polished fuch wheels about six months ago that we never had tires mounted on, so we plan to have those on soon. Rhodyguy, the 06 tag will look even better
