    Wow and I thought Canadian weather was hard on stuff !! I just pulled the engine on my Mondial t and was annoyed with the amount to be done. Good luck with the project.

    Car is pretty good, needs a front end repaint due to stone chips mainly but I'll repaint the whole car and redo the interior will I'm at it.

    Mechaically it is spot on and has only done 35k miles, I bought the car cheap as a project knowing the condition and that I would have to do these jobs.

    I cant imagine it would steer at all. I drive when the roads are clear but never onto a covered area because the rear pushes the car straight the steering is useless on ice(my driveway i never made it out).Theres salt here but it washes off right away.
