Thanks, The ad said that the frame and floors looked solid. The trunk is shot and will need a new pan. the lower fenders have some holes. the inner rockers are good, there is a hole in the driver side outer rocker. the driver door will need some work as there is some filler. there is holes on the inside of the car where the door hinges are near the floor vents. these arewhat worries me alot. Supposedly, the floor seems solid, with only surface observed from the inside.
The seller seem honest and knowledgeable and seems to know these cars in and out. I guess my question is, how could the trunk be rusted thru and not the floors? Im also wondering what the paint job that was last done is hiding.

The vin is 344 and the seller did verufy the tranny #s match but indicated it was difficult to see the #s on the engine. he stated that it looked like it had never been removed. It appears tha this is in fact a 442.
