Always comes when you have no cash

That's a good price at the BIN!
 
There looks to be a lot of bondo in the lower fenders, sills, and A pillars. The front edge of the hood and behind the doors looks done also.. I would be fearful... :shocked:
 
See, it's a good thing I have no money... yeah, that's the ticket.

Wow, Bryan's eye is better than mine, all I can see is a bit of a bulge on the A pillars but you're probably right on with your assessment.
 
If you look closely Jeff, you can see waving and crookedness on the front and rear of the sill, the A post and the lower part of the fender. The gap between the fender and sill and fender and A pillar also looks filled in and made to look like a seam, rather than a space. The crisp lip crease going into the wheel well is not there. The rear edge of the bonnet looks normal, but the front edge protrudes beyond the corresponding fenders and grill surround trim. That would make me suspect a patch panel riveted or welded over the existing front edge, then smoothed in. I'm not saying it's a junker, just aaying I would be suspicious and would want to give it a good old "Tony B" inspection. Especially considering the price.
