    So I'm camped out at the receiver. There's basically everything you could ever ask for within 1/2 mile radius.

    Long John Silvers and a liquor store.

    Ones in good condition are rare. Emissions systems from that era were a PAIN.

    If you are looking at it as a daily driver I would plan an Engine intake system update or back date.

    Key evolution dates in US production.

    Unleaded fuel/Catalytic converters Started '74. Build quality started to plummet. Front disc brakes where standard on most cars and Pickups.

    early 80's: crap tonne of vacuum leaks develop in the emission systems but started seeing Lock up Torque converters for automatic transmissions.

    Mid '80s: build quality started to return as a production priority.

    Early '90s: Fuel Injection became a viable product across most brands. ABS started to actually work right. Rear disc brakes started showing up on higher end cars.....

    I'll pay you a $100, and give you the title, if you'll just tow it out of the yard.

    I felt like the "hard" feelings was a water under the bridge event......that's what I took away from it anyway.
