My friend went down and working with the tow truck operator got it running. But he checked it out and it's obviously spent significant time outside in the nasty Oklahoma weather. It had been glass beaded and then primered and I put the e-coated NOS fenders on it.
It's surface rusted pretty good on the outside and some of those parts I was after were still in the trunk. Rats got in there apparently. So besides the mess my completely refinished trunk floor is ruined and possibility rusted out.
The completely custom upholstered Corbeau seats were covered in plastic and the plastic fell apart and the white seats are probably ruined.
WAY too much deterioration for me to want to tackle or sink more $$$ into.
Anybody want a nice project car - make me an offer. Besides the photos I am attaching details of the work I had done to it. It will need to be trailered because I can guarantee the rear axle bearing that I think went bad on the way down to this a-holes house in January 2016 has not been fixed either.
