Here's where it stands now. I paid $500 for the car and a blown up engine, the body is very solid and after stripping out the interior I only see a couple areas that need attention. The inside of the rear quarters are showing surface rust, and a couple spots where bolts were in the interior need to be stripped down. Stripping off the sound deadening material was much easier than I thought it would be, maybe because I am working in 15 degree weather
