The extentions and outer wheel openings was just surface rust. Just the corners at the back window was rust through. This is an Alabama car and always local from where purchased. No salt on the roads. The center of the trunk has holes. There is no rust on the rear valance so to speeak, just a dent, but 150 bucks put a valance of your choice type on there. We have extra funds for the steel patches in the quarters. Mostly lower rear patches at 60 bucks each.
I dont believe we are planning on a rotissery resto for any car, just make a good solid platform. There is no frame problems a small driver floor pan patch and front cap issues. Lower quarter patches. A good body man will have this car in primer in 2 weeks or less IMOP.
Hard to find a #'s matching, running barracuda for anything less then this price, and the price was reduced over 1300 bucks just for this sight.
You know of a better car? Show us. We are all open to anything.
