I bought this car last winter, intending to fix it and make it my beater car. Unfortunately, I didn't get around to fixing it last year and it was thrown in a barn. It sat, without being moved or started, until Sunday. This thing is a tank.
The guy I bought it from had a little 'mishap' with it, where he was cruising along on the freeway and a tire blew. He spun, slid into the Jersey wall with the front driver side, spun some more, and nailed the rear passenger corner into the wall. Not to mention, this was an older freeway setup where there was a curb -- the front driver wheel and back passenger wheel were both bent and destroyed
. However, all the car needs is an alignment
, which it is getting tomorrow.
All in all, other than looking like a heap of crap(literally), there is 0 mechanical problems. It even has a new tranny (>1000 miles).
P.S. My goal is to see how dirty I can get this pig. I washed off the windows since taking these pics, but I'm leaving the car as dirty as possible
EDIT: Forgot to add, the car started right up. Also, when I bought it last year, it had been sitting for 5 YEARS prior, and I threw a new battery in and she fired right up. In fact, the gas that's in the car right now is about 6 years old

You said the gas is 6 years old, well after you get that used up, I'd replace the fuel filter for sure 
What motor does it have BTW?
