well as I stated i bought it for $15,000. but one quarter needs to be replace for sure due to the fact the who ever had it befor me wrecked the quarter then did a terrible job of trying to recreate the lip over the tire. The hood has a weird dent in it at the bottom of the cowl.Most likly the entire floor pan will have to be replaced.There could be much more i dont know about it until I media blast it down or paint strip it. As I dig into this car I guess im wondering what I really paid for because it seems like im going to have to replace everything due to rust or bondo or a bent trunk lid.I also want to do the full PT make over with it so sooner or later the sub frame will be ditched and the original axle in the back will also be gone to make room for a 4 link and a mini tub and a for 9in.

I got into this car a little to quickly not really knowing what i wanted to do.I know most of you were in this situation or know someone who has so that is why im looking for some feed back I am very open minded and like to be told how it is so if im wrong tell me if you think i should scrap it for a new project tell me I'm in the military so im not easily offended so any help would be appreciated.

heres a video of the car it doesnt show alot of flaws but if you have a magnet you can tell

P.S. Itdorun i will be calling to discuss and i really appriciate you willing to help me out on this
