Winter is (hopefully over) - car back on the road

Dirt roads, but roads. I unfolded the car from it's hibernation location (parked since about the third week of august 2013) and got her out on the roads. While the car is become more of a POS, I love it. Dealing with intermittent headlight (right) going out, and a inop steering colomn position, a bazillion rattles, bad Display (needs replacement as it shuts off from time to time), and probably other crap.

Coming up on 10 years of ownership, though, and would ONLY sell if offered a stupid-high amount of money.


98k miles and going...also pictured with my winter-beater.

Wow 10 years. 98k on original engine? Nice man. Nice to see people who actually hang on no matter how much of a headache their cars give em.

Well, engine was replaced under the recall of 200-whateveryear. With the oil metering thing. So - engine has about 24k less than car. But yeah, i really love this car. Thanks!
