  4. I've never done a lien sale but I know you have to jump through some hoops. I think also you run the risk of someone being able to buy it for the cost of the lien. Don't remember how that plays out. No idea of costs as I have avoided DMV for many years.

  6. Ok ill check a pillars mounts and front crossmembers. Ive been working 8 days str8 with no relief in sight we short handed at work. (All the sudden) when i have something to do. With the****le and everything if its not pretty much rust free im going to pass. I just really liked this car. Im sure i can find a driving car in the 6k ballpark around here. I just really like 54 fords and chevys. Ive been eyeballing packards too
