Pretty sweet!  My brother had one that looked just like yours.  It was same color burgundy too.  One day the engine started to make a funny noise.  He popped the hood and saw the fan blades were hitting the radiator shroud.  He just figured that the shroud was missing a couple of screws and had fallen down.  He decided to drive it until it chopped all of the pieces out of the way, no problem right?  A about a month later he looked at it again and noticed that all of the screws where there after all.  The reason why the fan was hitting it was because the motor mounts had rusted away from the frame and the engine was about to drop out.  It was a pretty fast car though.  I think it was a '77 or '78.  Don't recall for sure.  What year is yours?
