              Current is fine, its just the car sat for two days with two really cold nights. It took some coaxing but i got it running and heated it up real nice.

              Looking for a clean dash if anyone has one.

                well cold only affects a few things. battery output, oil thickness and engine tolerances. we know the car runs, so tolerances is ruled out. you should be running 20-50 and it doesnt get bellow freezing so we can rule out oil. the only option is a weak battery.

                unless you arent mentioning that the car was out in the rain, where that would causing shorting by water.

                  It got frosty in Richmond a few nights and yes car was out in the rain.

                  Last night was pretty cold but now car starts up no problem. I should really get a tune up on this engine it has some quirky behaviors that needs to be addressed.

                  Dmitriy,

                  Do you mind if I borrows some stuff from you for smog?

                                Hey all, I'm not too active on here since I moved to the city a bit ago, and was looking to get a touring and saw this guy down in LA: http://losangeles.craigslist.org/lgb...789629166.html

                                A friend in the area said that it's been for sale for a while, has anyone taken a look at it or know anything about it? Thanks for the hand, fellas, I really appreciate it.

                                Thanks for the hand, I really appreciate it!
