Doesnt look that bad to me. The interior is still in good shape. Just finish off the outside and it will be a nice TA.

Thats a sad site, but not that bad though.

Finish the body, clean the interior, and you have a piece of history.

Bill, did that 84 by you sell yet?

I can even begin to comprehend what kind of an ***hole would do this to a 15th. Some may like it, I think its a waste of a car. Sorry, I have one...im a little partial to them.

Maybe he bought the car with damage and sans engine.

People are too quick to judge. You never know how that came about and hey, its his car.

Agreed. I can't imagine what people would say/think when they saw my multicolored camaro driving around. But they should have seen the condition it was in when I got it and they would understand how far its come.
