The new to me SDL.  It has 314k on the clock.  Tires are balder than a baby’s 
backside, some rust through in places, paint is toast, front seat covers are 
toast but seats move, fan and heat are good, did not check AC, sunroof works, 
engine runs, brakes work-ish, it was wet and bald tires do not grip.  Engine 
bay had thick residue, battery pan is rusty, under the pan, mice had a home and 
that made rust through.  Window do not lower… might be wire issue or ???  Will 
attach 12v to test it all.  PO did a bunch of work to keep it running, so not 
all bad.  I have yet to go through the two cases of parts and bits that were in 
the back seat.

I will pressure wash Sunday to really get the crud off then whip out the sander 
to get a surface for the filler/primer to adhere.  Major alligatoring of the 
paint and rusty spots all over.   I am turning it into a Polizei car, so hood, 
doors and trunk lid are getting green paint.  Rattle can white —  of the very 
cheapest will be used to coat the rest of the car.  The really really cheapo 
$0.99 a can stuff.
