Bought any stock in Bondo lately? :lol:
That one will take a hell of a lot of TLC George!
thats going to take a little bit of work.......
A few minutes with a buffing wheel and it will be just fine.
Yea, how's the floor pan look? :lol:
Looks like a MN car... maybe good for parts.
Year One to the rescue. All it'll take is a pile of money.
There has to be something for the bondo to stick to.:lol:Quote:

I do not look for a given style or body, make or model, I look at it from a cost to value point of view.
If it is some sort of collector car I forgo it as it is going to be too expensive and I am not into restoration.
But if a car with a blown engine presents itself I look carefully.
In Texas, due to the heat, blown engine vehicles with nice bodies are common.
:squint:
good luck, cant wait to see it finished
No kidding.Quote:

I'd tell the guy there are plenty of straight rust free Chevelles in the West that would cost less to retrieve than rebuilding that hunk of shit.

Abort! Abort!
Yeah, you really have to be desperate to take that one on. I doubt it would even make a decent parts car.
Exactly. The right fender is crunched already, so who knows if there are any frame issues. Forget about the body parts, the rust is too severe.Quote:

Look how high it sits in the front Dave . This indicates it probably doesn't have a motor or trans.Quote:
