Just had to share!!

I want to shout out to Waylen at Way Motor Works. He sold a salvage MCS to me in March and he didn't let me down one iota on the description and condition the little car was in. As anyone buying a salvage vehicle would be nervous not knowing what you might find once you tear into it and start rebuilding something. Anyway, I got the little fella home and immediately got to work on fixing it up. Frame was straight and it didn't have any warning lights lit up when you started it.

Now 6 weeks later it is done and I have to say that the guys fixed up quite nicely. Waylen helped me out with some info as I went along and in the end it came together. I have attached two pics....a Before and an After.

It really looks good, and you got it done fast. I've got a couple other project cars I need to get going, let me know when you want another.
