Thanks Nicole! If I had a parts car in my driveway, I would have to sleep in it, because the house would locked.

Bronto sends me CL parts cars all the time, but I'm really only interested in ones where the seller is doing the parting. Have had a couple of deals of this type. Thanks Rob, keep 'em coming!

If I found an early parts car with a seriously intact brown vinyl interior, I would consider sleeping in it.

The car is acually in pretty good shape, just a couple of small dents. The first 6 posts on that thread were really funny.

#6assistant

Yes it would

Nicole

I wasn't thinking of your driveway - I thought it would go right next to where #6 is residing. Then you could swap parts right away.

I doubt you'd travel to Michigan every night, just to get some sleep. I'm sure there are dog houses in Virginia...

Figured I'd post this up here as I'm sure it gets more traffic.

Anyone is invited.

Jim if you want to see that parts car Nicole mentioned it is in my garage waiting on restoration money.

If the garage is heated, and there is shower access, could be a deal.

Looking forward to it, Charles! Make sure you hide the sleeping bag and toothbrush before we look it over. I've heard the rear view mirror makes a fantastic towel hanger.

Does your's have the lit vanity mirror in the headliner? Mine does. May come in handy one day.

cpayne

Yes it does have the vanity mirror.
The side mirrors are a fantastic towel rack, for warmth, I can offer you a vintage 1984 Army Fart Sack, Official nomenclature "Bag, Sleeping , Cold weather, OD Green,. For cooling a hand held fan, some velcro and some used batteries.

I might go

Jadz928

You better be there!

In the meantime, I expect you will replace the lower ball joints and shocks. Go.

Oh wait, shouldn't you be in school?

This one is in German, but the images are great!

Only noticable changes were the addition of the rear foglamp, yellow oil-filler screw (was black), and bumper-cover beading was used.
