No way, dude. It's a 3rdgen, it runs and you like it so don't worry what anyone thinks. Others opinions only matter to you if you let them.

the way i see it, is it dont matter what people say bout your car. if ya like it then its not a pos. people used to say mine was because it has rust on it, but i love it so to me its not a pos.

I used to have a '68 El Camino that few people could appreciate. It was several colors of primer, rusty, and even had a dent in one side. Half the chrome was missing and the interior had no dash pad or pillar molds. I LIKED IT!!! It ran hard and was a total blast to drive. Don't be concerned about what other people think. You've got a work in progress and you're having fun. What else matters?

Well my car is not so rough around the edges anymore; I took a grinder to the rust.... took it right down to bare metal primed it with rust check then took a spray bomb to it Most of the rust was along the rocker panels so I just got a close color match & went over the whole rocker panel, looks good.

'cept there's now a 1" hole above the rear tire well damn rust ruins a car!

Not POS......especially since I saw that you put a TPI set up in it!

All you really have to tell someone if they give you **** is........
