I probably should just do the rust repair either way. That way it's done right if I keep it or worth more if I sell it. Should be good experience too and I have a new Hobart 187 that need a project to be broken-in on.

Worst case, I could panel match the paint with a detail gun until it's ready for a full respray. I guess a slight tone mismatch or gloss diffence on the rockers beats the hell out of gaping rust holes, right?

Maybe I could ask $10K for it and tell my wife "I'm trying, but I just can't seem to sell it" - Then I'd have to keep it.
