What's with auto body people? . . . .
so i just basically got laughed out of 2 auto body shops today. both told me don't waste my time or money on either of my cars.
my daughters car (71 scamp) needs a complete frame and they both said they wouldn't touch it. they suggested if i HAD to do one they'd swap everything over to my 72 scamp bc at least its solid. also said don't expect to get much for it WHEN i decide to sell. (no thanks for your opinion you richie rich asshole)
mine is just a shell right now with a few dings, a crease on rear quarter(thanks to my "friend" helping me move it today), no rust through on outside of the body, and pin holes in the floors and trunk.
my daughters would be a driver just needs the frame repaired to raise the front end and to have something to mount exhaust to. crappy paint job and not so good body work with decent enough interior. she likes it so that's good enough for me and her.
should i swap everything over and paint and body mine or do the frame repair on hers? my problem is I CAN'T WELD (my reason for going to body shops)so i need someone to do this for me or give me a lot of help and/or guidance.
i'm sure you all know what rusted frame looks like so no pics of those but a few of my 72...and her 71
