I have had my car for eight years and i would drive it like twice a month. This month i needed to bleed the brakes so i decided to take out the rocker panel and look what i found. ( currently i have the car in my condo parking garage on the six floor with no breaks and the condo assoc had a shit fit when i tried to work on the car, they want to fine me money) they can (IMG:style_emoticons/default/KMA.gif) In all i have no option but to save money and find a shop here in Miami, Fl ( anyone knows of a good shop in Miami) . My friend fixes and restores old American cars i guess I call him for help and pricing.
And yes My hell hole is a big Hole (IMG:style_emoticons/default/devil.gif) (but battery tray is still holding) I am going to order Engman 914 Hell Hole Kit.

HOW BAD IS THIS. I want to start buying the parts I need. Do you guys think i need to buy the clamshells or just do patch work on the longs.. ( note when going to restore i want a full restoration)

Thanks
