WILL I NEVER LEARN?

Why do I do this to myself? 1971 Numbers 318, 3 speed stick, 8 3/4, Kelsey Hayes set up with sway bar. Body is trash, but the car is mostly complete, and will help me to figure out where all the "stuff" goes on my basket case restoration 340 Demon. LOL. I got the fender tag and the build sheet to boot.

It's right out of the 80's with the locking gas cap, fog lights, and the fatties out back. Some sort of an aluminum intake, but it's too dirty to read so far. Came with a set of bbp 14 inch rallies and wheel adapters to make them fit.

Learn what, how to not buy badass classic cars? LOL... Looks like it's got some rot in the usual places down below but the body panels seem really straight!
