Former Moderator. RIP Icemark.
Pretty sad that the top two (Body dents, broken glass, serious damage & Misc interior or exterior cosmetic problems) are basically cosmetic and easily fixed.

When i first got my FC it didnt run because the car had a major flooding problem and rad. was messed up. Replace rad. and hoses and finally unflooded the car. Tore the interior apart because it was messed up and replace it with a 89 gtu interior. Now, the fuel injectors are leaking, brake line is leaking, and sunroof is leaking. Now i have socketlug lug nuts and i just broke the key so i have no way to remove the lug nuts. I went to 3 autoshop and no one has that key or lug nuts. I started this project in Aug. of this summer and now its 70% done. BTW, i got this car for FREE and i learn so much fixing it up. Just that everytime i fixed something another thing goes wrong.

went single turbo, only to find out that my intermediate housings are all ported differently and there is no way to control the A/R between the front and rear rotor and threw a seal with took the housing with it 
Never again will I pay someone to port my motor...

The problem with my car is that it's torn apart to a bare engine, I have parts waiting to go on it, and I broke 3 fingers on my right hand, so it's impossible to work on.
