I SCRAPED THE UNDERBELLY OF THE GAS TANK AND THE METAL PLATE PROTECTING THE GAS TANK HAS FALLEN OFF. IT WAS VERY RUSTY AS WELL.

FRONT SEAT FRAME BROKEN.. CAUSING SEAT TO MOVE FROM TRACK MOUNTING THAT IS BOLTED TO FLOOR CAUSING DRIVER TO BE ABLE TO LOSE CONTROL OF VEHICLE AND IN CAUSE OF ACCIDENT CAUSING SERIOUS INJURY AND OR DEATH.

THE SKID PLATE UNDER THE GAS TANK IS RUSTING AWAY AND FALLING OFF IN LARGE PIECES I AFRAID IT COULD FALL OUT.

THE VEHICLE SOMETIMES DOESN'T START AND SOMETIMES IT STARTS JUST FINE. SOMETIMES WHEN YOU PUT IT IN DRIVE IT WILL DIE AND SOMETIMES IT WILL RUN JUST FINE.
