Kinda like taking a foxy lady home from a bar and once home you find out she has a bigger shlong than you!!
Never know what's under a dress or paint!!
I would figure with all your experience you would have looked at the car first. By no means am I defending the car.
thats the problem with buying a car sight unseen. We were told from very good sources here that this car is perfect and the guy selling it told it like it was. Maybe he did not know of some of the stuff here but he knew it was not rust free. We got about 10 min to look at it before we bought it and found a few small problems but once you dig in its a complete new game. People are very good at hiding things. We had a guy bondo and body work a underside floor board right over rust so it looked perfect. Not much you can do till you tear it apart. that’s just the way it goes.

You worded it as if you purchased it from me. I wanted it abundantly clear that this transaction was no different than if the car was listed on Ebay, CL, the newspaper, or any other classifieds that can be found anywhere.
I don't want you trying to demean this community based on a private sale.
Chris at what point do you call it and start replacing panels Man those channels where the molding tabs sit don't look to good And the roof looks like a disaster....

roof coming next loading now and as you know that is a hard call to make because just when you think ok I have it all worked out you find more and it cost you twice as much to fix as it would have to replace. That as you know is the key to a quick and good build.

There was so much rust in the roof it was just easier to cut it off and start over with a new skin from Goodmark.
whoever had the bright idea to put a top on these where water can sit and cause rust should have been taken out back and well you can figure it out if you have ever fixed one of these because of the top.
