37 Years of Patina

This weekend was able to get the car on the lift for an exhaust tweek that turned into a new system from the header back, but that is another thread.

Here are some photos of the underside of my car as unmolested 37 year old patina. The only thing done has been a cleaning with a hose. Everything else is mostly all original, including the diff & tranny leak. The garden hose quick fix has been repaired.

How can you live in Kansas and not be rusted through everywhere?!

How can you live in Kansas and not be rusted through everywhere?!

Simple. Purchased in 77, driven in 1 snow, Paris, TX no salt, parked in dry KS garage in 80, refurbished and on the road in 08, 1 sprinkle of rain in 09, first since 80. Keep em dry.
