You guys have no idea what it is like in rust country..... I should have taken pics of all I had to fabricate for Shtinky over the last two months.... The rear quarters where the swing arm attaches and the torque boxes get to the point that the car becomes unsound. That is thecondition the greatest percentage of the shells are at in this area. I went through a 4' X5' piece of sheet metal plus some!Have owned 9 so far

On that note, I'm so glad that I live in Florida. The only rust cars you find are beach cruisers or from out of state, and if they're from out of state, it's usually owned by someone who has a house down here and had the car there for it's entire life, like the Contour I had.-Caleb

That's kinda cool seeing the underside from a complete "up top" perspective instead of just a little bit at a time from way too close underneath!
