Mine is sooo close to transitioning over as my daily driver.
All I've gotta do is figure out why my fuel relay isn't grounding properly and take apart my driver's door to get the lock mechanism moving again.
It's also apparently leaked / burned a crapton of oil that I didn't know about until I replaced the check panel and the oil light came on (only driven it like 100 miles since changing the oil, wtf).
Tires still have the new paint marks on them... from 1999 when they were made. Cracked to hell, still rolling 'em cause they work. Spare wheel is dented so I'm being pretty risky.
And the blower fan doesn't work. And the passenger window and sunroof don't work. And the battery went flat in two weeks once so I've been leaving it disconnected. And it doesn't idle well when cold. And I'm pretty sure if I light em up again going around a left hander I'll slash another coolant hose because the engine mounts are probably trash. I consider all of that to be minor, though.
It's pretty sweet crusing in a car I saved, knowing there's only one other person in the whole world that's ever spent any significant time in that seat. With such low miles, the car feels kinda new. It's creepy.
