    Thanks everybody!

    The roof actually did need a little patching, but we got the sellers to fix it. It had just rained hence the fading, haha.

    Might just be staining and the shingles are still workable for a while. You can wash it with the right magic cleaning potion.

    Hmm, needs a roof but nice digs man! I wish I had an attached garage, great for the DD's.

    Garages are the best thing since sliced bread. Good find for the Murphmobile with zero miles!

    Did a little rust work on one of the rear fender corners, fortunately all surface rust and nothing major yet!



    The lady and I also did an LKQ run yesterday, took advantage of their 40% off weekend. Found some mint sunvisors out of a Cutlass Ciera, they don't fit perfect, but for $8, being blue, and actually staying where you put them... I'm good with it!

    It fell right out after I went to pick it back up! Haha

    I also finally fixed my blower motor so that it's not running on a toggle switch anymore! I wonder why it wasn't working...

    Had that happen to us on a few occasions. Two turned into bidding wars (This homie don't play dat..) and the one was pretty awesome, lots of property with a house plunked right in the middle, but no dice as they didn't want to come down any.

    That car looks really good, I dig it man. If my Fury was comfy and didn't hurt my back & neck when I drove it, I'd have kept it.

    I did finally wash it! I also had to put a new positive battery cable on it today. Stupid thing left me stuck at WalMart yesterday until I finally got a connection from wiggling the wire enough...
