    I would save it but then again I like the challenge. Anyone can fix a solid and straight car and how else is my english wheel supposed to get worn out.

    Unless you have a LOT of money or a great gift working with metal ... I would let it go.

    Sure! Easy fix, but you'll needs a few parts! Get
    a frame and front clip from another car, a complete
    body from the firewall back from a second, add a
    drivetrain, wheels and suspension from a third. Put
    'em all together and she'll be mint!!! :D

  7. It would have to be at the very top of my bucket list...if not, I'd run outta gas before it was back together.
    I strapped on a very bent up , rusted 34, five window and it's almost ready for filler/primer but it was at the tippy-top of my "list".
    It's definetely fix-able but it's gonna take determination and commitment.

    pick it up it is a good body style that is worth saving. from the pics there looks like some good panels in there we have started with worse at least no one has messed with it you won't have to spend time going back and redoing shoddy repairs

    If you don't fix it, use it for yard art. I'm using an old tube chassis 32' Bantam for my yard art until somebody comes buy and has to have it for their next project.
