The frame rail condition is what does it for me.
If you add up the obvious exterior sheet metal, the floor pan, trunk floor, dutchman, roof, tail panel, hood, cowl, inner fenders, doors, and a few more, what would be left of the original car anyway?
Not much, and a hell of a lot of work and money to boot.
Think of the car being chemically dipped and what would remain.
There's your answer..........
