Ok, not great pictures, and since I havent had it but a few days, I havent had a chance to start working on it. That front passenger side is a little crinkled, so I will have to replace that panel, and I need to buy a replacement for the lower part of the front bumper, 90% of that is broken off.

Other than that, its just some rust and trim. Nothing to bad.

Anyways, any ideas on what to do about the rust? Or should I just replace those sections to? (there is no rust on the hood, trunk, or doors)


PS: I suck at taking pictures of the car, I know. It made it even harder, since I need to re-attach the front driver side panel, and I wanted to make sure that stayed out of the picture.

A. It runs
B. It cost me next to nothing
C. It runs

I had under $1200 to spend. The fact I got a car that runs great, and should look half way presentable by the time Im done with it, is well, amazing.

For that amount, pretty good.  Hows the engine?  Miles?

133,000. Engine runs great, transmission was rebuilt about six months ago (though, I probably did 6 months damage to it, since I hadnt driven stick in so long). It has absolutely no problems other than the brakes. We had to replace them today, since the brake pads pretty much did not exist.

Payed $525 for it, but I had to put a new windshield in it, since it was smashed out. So it was more like $750. I still need a stereo to, since that was stolen.

You'll never have one, faggot.

What you can do with the rust is cut out the rusted section and make a patch panel or replace the entire panel.  Keep in mind those are the right ways to fix it, but there are beaner style solutions like slapping a piece of duct tape on it.

Excellent car.

and if you want to plan mods, you have an excellent base to work on.
