If anyone has any specific pictures they want me to take and post I am more than happy to take care of. Just didn’t want to wait till the last day.
@DarkWingDuck – Hello, I see the stubs for windshield wipers. Do they work and do you have the wipers...Thank You ...
I have the wiper arms and blades. Whoever initially built the car took off the vacuum wiper motor and never put that back. There are several companies that make a bolt electric one. I just never got to that because I use the ceramic RainX and never had an issue driving in the rain.

@RMCAFEE – Have you driven it enough to see what kind of fuel mileage it gets ...
I have driven it plenty but never checked the mileage. It’s only a stock 16 gallon tank and I would assume being an LS it should get get at least the normal 15-17 that trucks would get.
@Jmphotrod – Dependable wise yes the car would make the trip no problem. Last one I sold went to California and by the time you figure a plane ticket, gas, and everything else you can have it shipped in a covered transport. You may look into that as an alternative to 2 full days of driving ...

@RMCAFEE – DOES IT HAVE HEADERS? DOES THE AIR CONDITIONING WORK? I DON'T SEE ANY WIPER BLADES, DO THEY WORK? ...
THANKS! THIS WAS THE YEAR I WAS BORN SO I LIKE THE CAR!
@RMCAFEE – DOES IT HAVE HEADERS? DOES THE AIR CONDITIONING WORK? I DON'T SEE ANY WIPER BLADES, DO THEY WORK? ...
It is running the stock cast manifolds that came with the engine. The air does work. It is still in the lower position on the engine and the oem style compressor. I do have the original wiper arms for the car. The wiper motor is not there. That is the only thing I never got around to doing. They sell a kit that bolts in but I always just ran rainx with no problem
