Our return from CNS.

Our journey to CNS Mustang Graveyard in Walkertown, NC was a trip that was probably not completely worth our time. We did discover a new piece of carpet that was in better condition than the old rug, but it was a job and a half trying to remove it from the car. It was a bitter struggle between us and the bolts holding the seatbelts in. A battle that was later won with a pair of vise grips and alot of strain. Other than the new, old peice of carpet, we didn't recover anything of any value to us on the trip. We were hoping to discover parts to allow us to convert our rear brakes to disc, but we came home empty handed on that search. Here's a few pics of our bitter struggle with the rug.
This is the car that wouldn't go down without a fight. It just has that junkyard appearance, doesn't it?
Mike and Mr. Butler taking a shot at that one stubborn bolt. I had done my share of fighting with the removal of the seats. With the rear of the car sitting on the ground, the bolts corroded, which made it harder to break them loose.
This is a pic of the interior after the removal of the seats and console.
Frustration and anguish.
A good sign. The bolt finally broke loose.
