Needs some work but nothing too crazy. I'd buy it for the right price.

In this part of the country, I would buy that car in a heartbeat. I really love silver cars.

That looks really good. The firewall isn't a huge deal, the real structural areas of the car look solid. I'd jump on it!

Okay, after a couple of weeks of thinking and using all my decision making resources (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smoke.gif) , I took the plunge yesterday and bought this car. It is, as you can see, completely stripped and packed away in boxes. A bigger project than I was looking for but hey, we all know I'm not real bright. The plan is to get the metal repairs knocked out before I ever bring it home and once that is accomplished, I will probably dump it on Scotty for paint. I will probably start a new thread for the restoration so be watching for it.
