Picked this Up a few weeks ago from the Original owner w/ a new trans installed in Oct of 2012. He was letting his son drive it and his son purchased a new car but was told he could not trade this car in, so it just sat in the back yard until i came by and asked if he would sell it. Made an offer based on some side work money i had coming in and he said yes! Car is a little rough around the edges, will need paint some interior work and it has 229000 miles on it. but i havent stopped driving it since i got it! Now onto pics...

Wow, congrats. Why so cheap though? I'll assume they really wanted to get rid of it.
