Here's a tip, if a friend who is a lawyer needs a favor, do it.
Michigan roads aren't much better.... and around Detroit, reminds me of a lunar landscape.

I don't remember the last time I was in Ohio. It's been years...... and it's only about 10 miles away.

When I came home from Detroit (Troy) I let the GPS bring me home through Indiana. I don't complain about Indiana roads anymore. I basically drove 1000 miles for nothing. I went up tp look at and possibly trade for this, with a solid frame.



When I got there, I found this.




It was missing a bunch of parts, the hood had been used as a paint bench, it had broken windows and I pushed my thumb through the frame where it was about to drop the back bumper off.

No such thing as 'solid frame' for something that old, up here in the rust belt.
