I'll take it home and give it a good cleaning maybe a light detail job, if I get enough time.

Did you ever get it out? What's the story behind this snake looks pretty solid

actually got it out yesterday, washed it, and drove it about 2 miles , ill do some more tomorrow , the tires have flat spots from sitting. This was my first 93, belonged to a psychiatrist probably in his 70s. All original 103k miles very clean, has had the bumpers repainted, all vin tags there. I bought it from an insurance co. after someone used a truck to pull a fence down around his house and then stole the cobra driving it across his yard, then removed the wheels, front seats, and rear spoiler. That was in 1996 , i replaced everything and may have driven it around 600 miles since then. Ill get more pics of it after clean under the hood, and interior.

At least you know how to do it now, if and when you have to change the water pump.
