I for one would really like for you to start a project thread with more pictures! I just bought my '74 ST a couple of weeks ago.

1st off, what a great find
, I still can't believe you found one so nice in a junkyard. Kudos for saving her!.
Secondly, though the 1874 was kinda funny
, I actually found the picture with the sign and -> that said "CANS ->" funnier. I mean I know these old Japanese cars were criticized for being made out of old tin cans, but
