By looking at the last picture posted it appears to me you bought a fine car.If it needs a little attention ok, thats half the fun of buying one of these. What fun is there in buying a car that needs nothing except to say hey look what I bought. Then you can say somebody else did all the work. What fun or sense of accomplishment is that. Just my two cents. Besides who cares what you paid for it! If your happy and the wife is not complaining then you did good and enjoy your purchase.

That's how I feel about my Corvette.  Compared to owning the Eagle its kind of an empty experience because I bought it needing nothing.  I feel so much more excited about and involved with the Eagle.  I am very proud of my Eagle but I don't have any sense of pride in the Corvette.

I paid much less than $3500 for it.  It's far from perfect but a very decent starting point I think.  Im just going to do the little things it needs drive it and enjoy it.

Good to hear! I'm guessing he finally realized 3500 was a bit much for what he had. No it looked like a great starting point. Enjoy your ride!
