A few pics that show the mild rust. The roof shots are the driver's side. They really show how much of the paint is baked off.

Them are gonna be bigger holes once you get the scale off and get to good metal especially the door. It looks chunky. I’ll still trade ya. Lol

Yeah those are patch or replace holes, not cat hair bondo holes lol.
At least the previous owner tried to do something constructive. Maybe. LoL

I was thinking some leftover window screen scraps and a gallon of bondo should just about cover it. Lmao

I am leaning towards spending some quality time with the dustless blaster and then we will know for certain what is underneath.

I'd just hit it with a wire cup on a grinder, but not before you're really ready to dice in.

Yeah, the random squiggly spray paint does nothing after the metal is all gone lol.
