Cars front windshield seal needs replacing, forgot to mention this before. I've put plastic and duct tape over the seal issue, nbsp;The interior needs cleaning, ampness because of the seal issue. Buying a moisture canister to suck out the dampness.
Car needs someone that wants a fixer upper, nd willing to put work into it, o install parts, nd clean it up. Drives great, great deal. PROJECT CAR, rice is firm. This car NEEDS someone that knows how to fix things.
