Yep :(

Only rust on the entire car, rest of it is perfect except for there....started from the inside and went outwards as they do. (was never there when I bought the car back in 2000)

Now that is Unique Jeff,

I remember my Step-father having an old oil tank ( about 2 foot by 4 foot by 4 foot high ) for a Fuel Tank hidden in the grape vines of the drive way. Dave I

This has the little glass bowl on it so you could see how the gas was flowing as you were pumping it, Still in good shape too !

A big tank full of fuel would be handy, if you could afford to fill it now a days, lol

would look hard case if it was connected to water and could be used as a hose to wash the car with.

I had thought about that actually...would have taken some digging though to get water supply to where it is, and of course ment a new hose for it, etc...and it is kind of cool now with the original (well, at least a really old..) hose on it.

Maybe run the water hose through the existing one? Would be cool

Thanks, had the car for some time now, and just enjoy it more every year.

Thought of various different ideas along those lines, but too much work to get water plumbed even to where it is, and I don't mind how it is just as a cool static display...

I had a forum member visit today....made for a pretty cool sight I reckon for over here

I would guess this is the first time a sedan and hatch have ever been side by side here in America ? (I have had a couple of hatch's together before, but never a more-door )
