I think I need a bit more prep for that. Both of my doors are rusting at the bottom and in need of repair. I also need a tune.

My drivers door is rusting, my front bumper is cracked, drivers quarter panel is all screwed up and I have a few spots where rust was coming around the hatch strip
Stupid Minnesota
Still runs and drives good though, I'll just have to try to fix up what I can and see how long I can keep it going.

BTW, for those of you who don't know, a pint of Seafoam through the brake booster vacuum line really clears up the idle and hesitation. I do it every spring but I always forget how much of a difference it makes.
