Well its official. The vette is just a parts car. Frame is rusted out, birdcage is rusted out in spots, body mount bolts are all rusted in, all wire harnesses need replacement, the list goes on. Basically the more I tear into it the more I find wrong. Its beyond my capability and budget to fix. Anywho Im gonna list on ebay in a couple of days for 3K. If anyone is looking for a vette like this let me know and we can work something out. Im looking to sell so I can get one more suited to my needs and budget.

Hey Flem,
Too bad about that!

It's really hard to look that deep into a car 'til after you've bought it. tough break Glen. Don't let it get you down. We'll be anxious to hear how this episode plays out. Good luck buddy and keep us posted.
