you could pull that out with a stud gun and puller, and just fiberglass the rest to get it perfect, no need for cutting and welding, but deff would hit him with a 3000 offer, since youll need to buy a hood and get it and the cowl painted.
youd be surprised how many cars have body filler in them, most any car thats been restored has some amount of it, theres no way to get a straight smooth finish wirh out it if you weld in body panels.The only car that should be fixed with fiberglass is a Corvette. Even then, I'd pull the motor and scrap the rest
Agreed, I grew up working around a body shop, but I meant fiberglass, which is a huuuuge differenceyoud be surprised how many cars have body filler in them, most any car thats been restored has some amount of it, theres no way to get a straight smooth finish wirh out it if you weld in body panels.
I honestly can't stand red interior, but replacing the seats with black ones would help a lot I think. I'm sure they make some kind of paint to paint the panels and rest of the dash if it still bothers me. Just wish the car was black or red so it wouldn't look so out of place. Interior color isn't a main concern for me. Like you said, no rust issues and going to see how well the rest of the car is. Judging by the pictures with brown grass and no leaves on trees it looks like it was taken in the fall/winter.
A clean red interior is WAAAAAY better than a dirty, black interior...or one with a crappy paint job.
That interior looks clean. Pick up some black SN95 seats (front and back) and swap them in and call it a day. Black hatch carpet, black main carpet, keep it clean and you'll love it.
I HATE seeing people put crappy, painted black interiors and pull out a nice clean blue or red interior.
PS..hope that BBK intake was installed well. Known to have issues
Went to go look at the last one I posted. Pulled up and noticed how dirty it looked. Front wheels almost looked black from all the brake dust so I had a bad feeling about where this was going. First thing I noticed is that I could not find the three bars on the heads showing that they were GT40 heads, but then again in pictures I've seen the bars on the heads were off the car, but I'm pretty sure I could see enough to know there weren't bars on the heads. The heads didn't even look touched. This was after the guy said the bottom end had been rebuilt. The guy knew what three bars I was talking about but when I said I didn't see them on the heads he didn't have much to say about it. Looked around some more and saw some oil leaking from the valve cover and behind the distributor. Went for the test drive. Gears and clutch felt good. I go to stop and the brake pedal had to be almost to the floor before it would even begin to stop and also pulled left while braking. By the sound the rear was making I would of thought it had mud tires on the back. Got back and thought maybe the tires were cupped on the back, but they were smooth, so I assume something in the rear end was causing that noise. Popped the hood to see if anything new showed up after driving it. There was hardly any brake fluid in the master cylinder. There was barely any oil showing on the dip stick(this was after he said he changed the oil recently and it was 'fresh'). Oil filter did not look new and what was showing on the stick looked very dark. Looked for rust and didn't really see any except for on the driver's side torque box. You could stick a couple of fingers in it from it being rusted out. I was ready to walk at that point, but to entertain myself I asked what the lowest he would take for it and he said he has to have $4,500.... So I left.
