I am just speculating but I imagine nearly every panel on that car needs replaced. The quarter is definitely looking like it has a nasty surprise hiding underneath. How are the floor pans, both inside the car & trunk?

Can you do ALL the sheet metal work yourself? If not I don't know if I would buy it with the intention of "restoring" it to flip for a profit. Too easy to fall into the project trap and invest WAY more than you would ever get out of the car.

If the car was solid you might get away with it but sitting in the woods covered in pine needles is a breeding ground for rust in places you might not initially see.

Is the drive-train complete?
