    If I am not mistaking that is the rusted frame rail hanging from the back quarter there. That is pretty bad rust. Description does not mention how severe that is.

    Great car to get lots of fabrication and welding practice. It looks like the inside of the headlite frame is rusted away. Still could be a great start for a street rod, but a lot of work for $1000+ whatever it goes for. It is a coupe and what can you get for this price, if you don't have a lot of $$$ to start with.

    This makes me feel a hundred times better about my rust bucket. This car looks like it was taken out of the swamp and primered.
