Drove 120miles round trip to pick up this car. 90 Toyota Celica STX and I picked it up for free. Body is perfect just one dent on the entire body. The interior is good just a worn drivers seat and missing the temp **** for the air. Trans is perfect but the motor is knocking pretty bad. But still for the price of a motor and the rental on the uhaul trailer I got a pretty nice car.

Dont mind mud, but a jeep covered in salt is a different story.

Built a Rod/Cooler rack for surf fishing. Spent a total of $110 on it. That's about half to a third of racks for sale.

I'm pretty happy how it turned out. The rod holders are PVC but painted to look aluminum. All hardware is SS.
