What's with auto body people? . . . .

The car is worth what you want it to be, just don't expect to sell it for that. In short, its a project for a reason, the fun and feeling of accomplishment when you do it yourself. If I find more rust on the frame of any of mine, I'm stripping the body, flipping it over and welding in new frame metal. In the NE US, finding a rust free Dart is like finding gold at the end of a rainbow, so I'll stick with the cars I have.
