So i repurchased my 79 242gt from the girl who painted it electric blue with spray paint, and now i am wondering what to do with it. I have stripped most of the paint down to the base coat, only to discover rust along the rockers and door bottoms. I have limited funds to do something with this car, so here are my options:
1. sell it to someone for $200-$300 and just let it go.
2. bomb it black with like 10 cans of the 89 cent rustoleum gloss black spray paint, and put under the bumpers another set of fogs, maybe buy a can of orange for $5 to put a racing stripe on it that matches the seats
3. bomb it black with the same paint and chop the top so it's a "convertable" but not really "-able", just without a roof.
4. try to find somewhere to store it so i can in five years restore it and do a V8 conversion.
this car was like a dog to me. but sometimes you have to let go of both dogs and women, i find, not that the two are similar, but you know what i mean.
This is the THIRD time in 10 years I have somehow owned this car, which was so AWESOME when I originally purchased it. fate may have brought this car back to me, but i can't afford to do anything with it, so there it sits, illegally parked!?
so what do gt fans think?
