    Nothing like using the term "Turd" to sell a car.

    How about some close-up shots of the rust?

    Also have a couple of questions:
    1. Does the donor driveline have a Torsen?
    2. How many miles on the engine?
    3. How many miles on the transmission?
    4. How many miles on the chassis?

    1.) 1.6L diff, not a 1.8 diff.
    2.) 80-90K on engine
    3.) 40-50K on tranny
    4.) 134 on odo, but it is broken so I think 140-145ish...

    This was when I first got the car. I have scraped it a little and treated with a POR type spray that turned the rust into black primer, so it is much less noticeable...

    I thought this thread had been locked?

    This Moderhater thing is more fun than reading 70's era computer manuals. Once you figure out how things work, the directions start to make sense
