lol...wyoming actually...at least it's first 20 years or so. It had a texas inspection sticker from 97 when I got it.
I keep a few rusty parts from it...it helps when you show the stripped down car to non-car people and tell them it took 5 years to get it to that point....It also reminds ME of what the heck I've been doing on it for 5 years, and actually how far I've gotten it during that time. It's so easy to get discouraged when progress on a really  thorough restoration is so slow.

AMEN to that brother!
Its not so much the slow progress for me, but I've found out what I call BuBBa's Law which simply states
"The poorer the condition of the OEM part, the less accessable it is and more difficult it will be to find a replacement"!!!
