Re: Do-able project?
Looks like mainly surface rust. If the wife says OK, seems like it would nice in a flat black with steelies. Make a nice rat project out of it and cruise it without the worries of door dings, etc. My next project will be all rat!

Re: Do-able project?
I'd say someone has done a bit of roof chopping on it already..

I'd snatch it up in a heartbeat and turn it into this:

Re: Do-able project?
Looks to me like someone did a halfass chop job on it. Did they kluge up the frame also? I would say you will probably be inheriting someone elses screwup. Start fresh and do it right. If the price is right you can buy this for the sheet metal ($350 or so) which can be used to save another truck. Does it have a clear title? If not that can be a major headache also.
My first instinct is to say walk away though. Last edited by Houston54; 06-12-2007 at 07:33 PM. |

Re: Do-able project?
How do the doors line up, can't see it very well in the photo
How are the floors and rear pockets for rust?
