Perry, that sounds like a pretty good deal to me. Especially if it's a
rust-free body (better chance of that in AZ vs here in New England). You could
weld in a new firewall patch panel for less than a couple hundred bucks. But I
would take a good look at the suspension, brakes, frame. And how's the
interior? If you're planning on putting in a V-8/auto tranny combo, this might
be a good project vehicle.
