I’m going to trim the herd a bit and am starting to look seriously at which cars to hold on to and which to sell.

I am hoping I could get some eyes on this front end hit. Car drives straight without odd alignment settings and is really solid otherwise. Never to going to be a show car or high end restoration but how much would this put you off as a keeper driver? For a race car?

The front panel, without the holes punched out, is factory replacement sheet metal.
The 73-74 cross brace wasn't "needed" on earlier cars so it could be removed.

The floor & under bucket braces would concern me. I'd put it under cheap racer / daily beater, not a restoration candidate unless the rest of the chassis is super nice. Maybe more if I had welding skillz and a free front clip.
