Possibly trading for a '65 Barracuda

Went to check out the car today and took these pics. The chrome is in excellent shape, and although some mud work has been done, I think the body is pretty good. The last picture kinda concerns me ... not sure what that rusted, bent piece is.

And the VIN is confusing the snot outta me. It's an 8-digit VIN, but the good folks at MyMopar seem to think it should be a 10-digit VIN. Not sure what to make of that.
