Just purchased a notchback today. The front frame rails are shot and the rear quarter under the window has some rust. On the fence weather to save it or not

ill have to get some pictures of the shock towers. they are by far the worst i have ever seen. the only thing i can think of is to box them in with tubing maybe and then tube the front of the car with one of those kits from motion raceworks or jegs or something....
