Tater has gotten some good care over the years, and no small measure of bad owners. But I think the nice exterior is due to the 3 paintjobs it'shad to help cover the ugly. Kinda like puttin lipstick on a sow.
I dig all cars, old and new, whether they were hammered out of American iron, German steel, or Japanese tin cans. Being unable to appreciate them all is missing out on a world of great things. But thats just MY opinion! :P
