Message	This car was headed to the junk pile. The car had been sitting idle for two years, and was for sale locally for more than six months with no takers. With 200K miles, leaking oil and power steering fluid; bad brakes; an exhaust shot full of holes; shocks worn, etc. etc. Whatever was done to bastardize it's thoroughbred heritage; the alternative of doing nothing would have meant a one-way trip to the crusher. _________________________________________________
