Yea, that engine is carbbed too :-(<br>
Looks like a euro model that was probably still carbbed in 69,<br>
Salt is usually off the roads for good by the 3rd week in April,<br>
although this year we were into May before we got washed down as it snowed<br>
in the middle of APril and we didnt get rain again till May.<br>

Keith,<br>

So true on the rebuilt engine point. I would hope that it would be a car<br>
you could start and hear run. You never know till you look further.<br>
<br>
Along those lines, when does that area defrost enough to check it out, get<br>
it out of a yard and drive it home? That might make it easier for me to<br>
budget for the purchase if I have a target date.<br>
<br>
My options for getting the car to me are flying up and driving it home over<br>
a long weekend and shipping it here. Luckily, I have to schedule full load<br>
trucking for work. I get a pretty good price as long as a truck is coming<br>
from that area with some room.<br>
