LOL... thanks, Its very bare - the Felt tan interior is there.... Its a very very good shell... No bondo anywhere - part of the reat by left tail light small dent... LOL... will post pictures of more distruction to the donner...
 
damn not bad, i usually strip my cars all the way down to a bare shell when i get them to go over them, clean it and replace anything that is getting weak or rusty. It will probally get frustrating as you get into the work of rebuilding the shell but stick with it and it will be worth it. now is also the time to do it right the first time and not just throw it together. Do it right and u only do it once. You basically can make it feel and look like a brand new car again if u do it right! Right now i have my evo 8 down to a bare shell that i'm rebuilding from the ground up with everything brand new, even reundercoating the entire car!
