yeah,front floor pans,and a little bit behind both back wheels,and a few other small holes,after seeing what dirtbag does this rust could be fixed in a week by a blind man,with an oxy and fencing wire for filla.

Anyways, el suprimo has his eye on it,and the plans are fully wickid.

yep,thats the best thing with it,and the strips might be factory.Its never been repainted,i scored it 14years ago,had to move the earth to get the shell,as it was fully striped out,had to slide in axles,fit the front Y frame and front suspension to make it a roller,pull down a tin fence,drag through a paddock,and put on my trailor,i always wanted to do it one day,but i,m always doing other peoples cars and galavanting about the country side, ell supremo PM,d me,and i know it will get the full treatment,stock paint,gts front and a BIG motor.
