this image being detail of same car as steel bar welded from engine mount to suspension trailing arm?
seems to be a glimpse into whats on the other side of a hell hole supernova collapse.
i'd think hard about this one before you start.
Where are you seeing this? In another thread? The image in OP shows metal welded in to bridge rusted floor across the double walled firewall. While it may be an omen of poor quality repairs in other areas of the car, it is a commonly repaired rust area and not that difficult either. Granted, from this one pic I would assume there is a LOT of rust to repair on this car we don't see, but I don't see anything in this pic that makes me think this couldn't be a good PROJECT car.
Are there more pics of this car that I'm missing
"what makes me think its not a good project car?"
not sure i said that.
i do advise to stop and think.
as others note, whats the rest of the car like.
----------->that requires a stop and think.
whichever way you look at it, it would appear that is where the car discussed here is at.
not a few repair jobs with the engine in etc as the owner inquires. its a strip down to tub job. and a commitment to years of work.
you can save anything if you have the time, skill and patience.
which again, those of you who have done it, i would not discount the skills you have.
and have used, even if you have taught yourself.
