Nearly rust free. Just a rust hole on the firewall. 2 of us removed it, put it on a trailer and dropped it onto my frame. Even the rockers are perfect.

And now it sits on my restored frame with upgraded disk brakes.

Nice score. Wow, two of you, what are you, silver backs:lol:

Really I was surprised how light they are, but I've always had a guy on each corner.

Lol. Took us 8 hours, ton of Pepsi soda, bunch of burritos, 3 floor jack's, 2 furniture dollies, lots of "hold up, wait." and lots of "getting too old for this"

Nice score. It’s pretty surprising how firewall heavy they are too. I’ve moved a few with two guys, it’s an adventure to say the least.

Yeah, I didn't realize how firewall heavy it was.

So they do exist They do exist :lol:

Very nice.:metal:

The glass adds a lot of the weight.

Good that you had help and was able to leave the glass in.:chevy:

I just took the doors off. But yeah, I'm sure the glass adds quite a bit of weight.
