You sure the car ain’t fixable at least for a driver? Even if the frame was rusted it could be reinforced or partially replaced. I saw the car for sale and was interested in it, but really didn’t need another vehicle.
If it’s really that far gone, I would be interested in the two doors in the front of the quarter panel up to the rear wheel well to make my station wagon into a two-door sedan wagon . Might be interested in the front fenders, too. I know of a solid 4 door car that could be made into a two door. Hmmm. I wish I had more room here.

Kind of deceiving in those pics. Paint and a good filler job will hide a lot of stuff (original pic). :( Up close it looks a little worse and when you really get to looking at it, it is pretty bad. And yes, the L. front rail is toast as well as the complete floorpan, not to mention the inner and outer cowl panels. My brother came up and looked it over for me and found places I hadn't noticed. To quote him- "It would make a helluva race car. Already lightened by rust." I'm sure someone with the time and resources could fix it. My brother said we could do it but the main problem is he lives over an hour away from me. I appreciated the offer but didn't want to take away from what little spare time he has. :thankyou: If another one comes along I MIGHT be tempted but rest assured, I won't be following my heart on it. :p
