The "basket case" is one of the most common Spider editions. Unfortunately as a result it's not worth as much as other Spiders :D

Haha yeah AJ that's what i've been told, maybe with a little help I can give her an upgrade. And RRoller thanks for the links to help out with pic posting, I'll try to get some shots of the car on here before too much longer. My main concern, and I'm sure several here are familiar with this, is the trailing arm brackets where they bolt up under the car. To me they both look pretty rough (rust) and I'm not sure what I'll hear when I take it to the shop Tuesday but really would love to save the car, certainly will be a blast to drive.
