2 prior owners & myself since 1995 with maintenance records. California until 2003 then Florida no flood damage.
Running 12- 15 + pounds boost stock.

Professional Body man of 25 years has reassured me that this is not a difficult project completed many G-Body cars with similar damage with restorative perfection achieved without defects. Reference available

Can you post a few pics farther back, that aren't 18" from the collision damage ?
Is the title clear or salvaged ?
How many miles ?
 
If you are interested in selling this thing, post some pictures of the entire car so we can see whats there. Don't forget to show the interior, the engine bay and at least one shot of back of the car.
You may want to say were the car is located---that may also matter.

Totally agree. These vague ads with crappy pics and no location are frustrating.

I can't tell anything from those pictures, Im out. Cannot in good confidence do a long distance transaction on this information an I learned the hard way not to drive long distance without 100% certainty. Perhaps someone close can take a chance. Hope it finds a good home.

I'd really hate to see one of you guys get badly burned on this one. Everybody needs to take a step back and think about it. The car's in Florida. I don't think I need to tell any of you about its terrible humidity and the damage it can quickly cause to a car left sitting in that type of environment. What may have once been a good car, can very easily become a cancer case.

Now, fenders and a front clip aren't too big a deal. But, how about damage to the core support, the gearbox, or the frame underneath the core support? What about damage to the a arms or spindles? I'd personally want to have a car like this lasered on a frame machine to coordinate all points. But then again, maybe it was a minor impact? Judging from the pics, now about that. It's really hard to tell much, if anything about the impact from them. Which, right there may be a huge red flag. Is the seller trying to downplay the force of the impact and the extent of the damage?

Getting back to Florida and its terrible humidity, you need to be asking the seller how long has the car been down for, how and where has the car been stored during this time, and to see recent pics of its undercarriage(get and put today's newspaper in those pics). Again, be careful with this one. Who knows what lies ahead? Don't regret not spending more and saving yourself all the headaches associated with projects like this.
