    nice ride! stock or modified? The true degree of work is found when she is undressed during disassembly

    65,
    she's an original 348 car, so that will stay, the rest will be modified.

    Got under her this morning.....some good....some not so much....
    someone tried to cobble some floor pans and attached them with self tapping SCREWS !! I already have the new pans AND a WELDER !

    Otherwise, the frame, cross members etc appear to be mostly surface rust and totally salvageable

    This is my third build, the other two ended up being frame off's, so I expect this one will too.
