Thinning the projects ..this is a 1969 300.
Both rear frame rails look like this. passenger floor areas ok. stub ok. rockers ok. both quarters behind rear wheels bad. body panels otherwise good metal.
I do have a clean-enough '69 "donor" and skilled body men ("old school" guys with 40 years experience & still "young" enough/high work ethic to take it on).
Yes, i know its a big job. My guys have rendered an opinion. Its a "split decision" - two guys in one camp, one guy in another. Money is a concern but not a constraint to moving forward. "Concours" resto was never in the cards.
I am taking peoples' thoughts here before I make a decision next week to start repairs or scrap the whole car.
I will not derby it, but will strip it of good parts before it gets recycled. I will not be selling parts from it.
Sorry, there are no more pictures coming.
Thanks in advance if you have thoughts.
