Seen it at Mertins.  Way to rough for the asking price in my opinion.  I would agree with you that it needs a body off to fix the rust.  At the asking price there are better cars out there that need less work yet can still be a father/son project with is part of your goal.

Low ball em.  The saleman said they couldn't figure out if the car was 6 volt or 12 volt.  Enough said.

Save yourself a headache and look for a car down south that is really dry and may need a little mechanical repairs. It will pay off in the long run
