i went and had a look this car and it seems to be really solid but it does need a full resto.. even has the original engine and gearbox.. well worth its money

Is it a potential rat or something that needs resto staraight away? What's the floor like?

they are solid ther is only a little bit of rusr in one of the wheelarches and in the spare tire bit. nothin major tho. if i had a little more cash i would have got it myself. He told me that it had been off the road since 1975 so the engine is not running and it is missing a few little things but all easy to obtain stuff.. even still has crossply tires.
