    Ahhhh the sixties... I envision myself one early Saturday morning wearing plaid shorts, black shoes with white socks smoking a cigarette heading to the hardware store to buy a bag of nails.

    Hi,

    I saw the car this morning. I'm not an expert like most of you guys on the forum but here is what I can say after a 5 minutes inspection. I will try to give a neutral opinion:

    - the car was originally blue
    - there was a lot of water in the car
    - there is a lot of rust on the frame on both sides at the quarter near the rear wheels
    - I think the car has been accidented one time if not 2. The floor and the left side panel show important deformation.
    - I didn't look at the engine

    Please note that this is my own opinion.

    Hope it helps

    Damien

    Thanks for all the offer and opinions, but I'm going to pass on the car. The search continues.

    Nick.
