I'm going to fix this car. If you have any helpful advice for repairs, please speak up. If you want to tell me its hopeless, stay on the sidelines and view the progress.

Unless there is a good rolling shell on the west coast this is what I have to work with out here amongst the palms.

Looks like the Pacific has had its way with this car for a while. there was a detailed receipt from Maaco claiming to have cut out and welded new metal in back in 2002 in many spots. I think the previous owner got bamboozled.

I'll be surprised if I find any evidence of proper rust repairs, I have found bondo in some of the rusted areas.

I'm just getting started, my tools have yet to arrive but they are in port so soon I'll start taking this thing apart.
