It may turn out to be a DIAMOND IN THE RUFF OR A ROUGH DIAMOND.
Good luck with your new project.

That's what happens when you don't wax them at least every 10 years.

Let us know how that radiator mod works out for you, and you might want to reconsider the placement on your muffler, it gets hot enough in there already with out the muffler in the pasenger seat!

Seriously, good luck!

Poor little thing, she's been raped to death, those damages seem to be intentional... what's the story? a wave of passion ended in tragedy?

(the interior seems to be in good order though, apart from the dog bites on the passenger seat

)

Most people don't smash a hole through the fender to examine the frame but I guess if the seller doesn't mind...

One of the best mods I did to my Vette was moving the radiator to a location in front of the engine. The driving position improved tremendously.
