    I think I saw that car on the local Craigslist a few years ago. It was in some storage facility near South San Francisco if I remember right.
    It looked OK from 25 ft away but up close it was clear that this one had major issues.

    At least you will know every inch of that car by the time you have finished Wayne and the knowledge that you have done it the justice that it deserves....

    Didn't realise myself what I let myself in for with my 5w, I shipped in years ago....

    I remember when this car was advertised, I still have the pics of the add on my old computer. I considered it but timing was bad. looks like I dodged a bullet. But it looks like you are making lemonade out of a lemon.

    I thought all 34s came like that. Mine had been upside down too, it sat in the back of my workshop for 9 years before I started it but it's nearly there now.

    if you are going to be that bad at the metal part you need to put a little more effort in the bondo sculpting part.
    nice save.

    I was feeling sorry for you until I saw you could fix it all. :)
    that would be expensive to pay someone to do.
