Rough riders (Part 5 of 7)

Everyone has a variety of reasons for driving old steel. And here at Rust 'N' Pieces, we love hearing those stories. After all, it's the people behind the wheel that make these cars special. ROUGH RIDER: EJ Baldivino RIDE: 1976 Mitsubishi Lancer (four-door) WHAT'S THE STORY? "Got her in 2006. She was parked under a tree in Fairview. Actually, she was mine already, I sold her, and then I had to buy her back." COOL DETAILS It has a beautiful green paintjob and all the exterior trim is complete. FUTURE PLANS "To preserve the body and just make sure that the car is road-worthy so that it can be driven every day." DREAM OLD-SCHOOL CAR EJ wants an original works rally car.
