The ol bump made it to my house. I winged it on a dead inspection sticker from my moms house to mine today. I drove it bad trans and all. No problems. Fired up and ran great after it hadnet been drove since 2009. Forgot how i missed it. Felt great to drive the ol rustbucket. Really missed it. Now to get its new trans some tires and a battery. Little work and itll be on the road again. Hooray RustBucket!
This is where it shoulda been for some time. In my driveway. Looking good. Still aint sure if my property value raised or lowered though!!!!
RustBucket is home!!!!!!

Sure is pretty nice shape for being named rust bucket. But I assume that its named that cause of the shiny orange color.

Yeah I don't see any rust to speak of. I was expecting to see the bottom half of every panel rotten away.
