Vehicle Detail

I've got too many projects piling up so this one has to go! It starts and runs really well. It isn't show quality, but does make a very nice driver. The only rust areas I know about are a post card sized spot on the driver's side front floor pan, a small strip on the passenger's side member (nothing on the rocker or floor), and a 3"-4" area of paint bubbling on the edge of the rear fender wheel arch. I have the floor pan and side member replacement parts and they are included with the car. The top is decent, but has shrunk a bit so it's hard to snap along the sides. The paint has some dings and scratches the most notable of which is the long scratch on the driver's side fender. It was originally an orange car, but was repaint Blaze Red a few years ago. It starts and runs well with no overheating problems since I've owned it. It uses about a quart of oil every 800-1000 miles depending on how hard you drive it. It doesn't leave any puddles on the floor so I imagine it needs some valve adjustment at the very least. I've never had it out on the interstate and it only sees the highway occasionally so it's been a short drive city driver for me. It has a standard 4-Speed transmission without overdrive. This is mileage exempt due to it's age so I don't know for certain if the mileage is actual, but I believe it should be correct.
