I have some body panels that have rust or body damage or both. Since auto body work is not cheap, at what point should parts get thrown out? For example this 65 Valiant trunk lid and 69 Barracuda trunk lid.
The gold piece is toast, IMO. The other is workable.
I think the gold 65 barracuda (Canadian Valiant) piece is very fixable compared to others that I have seen.
Well said. Unless i was to see it in person. Both my barracuda trunk lids are rough. I need to de-skin them and deal with rust from inside out.It's a different story when parts are being reproduced, but unless I'm mistaken neither of those items are re-popped. I'd be looking for cleaner stuff if that's what I had, but I bet there's folks out there that would be happy to have that instead of what they've got.
