I live in Maine, your better off where you are to find one rust free, here rust is a fact of life, i rember back in the day a freind of mine had a 86 with a 454 in it, guy could not keep rear ends in it, he had to custom make his headers, car would pass anything but a gas station, i had a regal T type and i couldnt keep up with that monster.
We used to crusie a strip in Bangor called Broadway, then moved it to the downtown area, very small compared to any major city, dont tell that to alot of the folks that live in Bangor they think its a metroplolitin city, the police would come in the area around 11pm every friday and sat night right on time and schedual so we knew when they would show up and be all good little nice boys, hudge change now with all the toyota'* , honda'* and neon'* running around with lowerd suspention kits, a sound system that cost more then the car and all kinds of diffrent lights and of course the sound muffler that makes em sound like a popcorn fart in a coca cola can lol
