My Matador is a 30K original miles from NC....so it had an easy life compared to a car from up North!!! I drove a 1964 Bug in college......freeze in Winter.....fry in Summer!!! it was about 10 different colors....no bumpers....each corner dinged up good.....but for next to nothing it got me through!!! It would walk out a plug now and then.....points came apart once.....fixed them w/o tools on the side of the road in the dark!! Brakes failed and I still drove it for a week until pay day using the E brake,,,,,,which worked well!! My kids had great cars when they hit school...... SORRY for the hijack!
