Woah. I did a reply-all and it's going to everybody! =)

I paid $800 for mine ($900 if you count the "tow" back home") and it needs:

New paint
New Interior
New dogslegs
New trunklids
New ignition

I had the map light work once. When I connected the battery for the first
time it came on. Went out after I shut the door and hasn't come back on since.

I figure that my car will be as reliable as any new car, since, after I am
done, it will be a new car, more or less. =)

Saftey.. um, er, not moving:
