Yes, rust, from behind the vinyl top.  Needs to be de-topped.     Yes, NJ its what is called a split-foyer house.  The windows are in the basement.

sounds though you need a tornado first  to clear your basement before you can use it as a shelter ;D

  :'( i miss having a basement. i dont miss tornadoes. Your car is purty :). Looking at it made me think back to 1989 when I owned an 89 Dodge Daytona Shelby Turbo (red/charcoal) that had the little spoiler thing on the liftgate.. but also had panels that covered all the space between the car and the ground. If i had taken those off, and lifted the car.. it woulda been pretty close lookin to an SX/4. (Altho' i dont think it will ever live up to an eagle)

Do you start her up periodically throughout the hybernation to make sure everything continues working.

After our fiasco with the Toyota Corolla I got for my wife I believe I am done with Japanese vehicles.

Dude you are preaching to a choir member that is close to becoming an AMC Minister if you know what I mean.
