Alright, gonna wait. The more i think about it the more i realize it's just too much rust for that price range.

Guys I would just like to clarify on this car - yes there are a couple of rust spots. The drivers fender should be replaced, but as you know it's a bolt on part once you find one and spray-bomb it silver. The only other area of concern is the driver's side outer rocker panel. (As AME11 mentioned there's rust "under the doors" - I assume that's what he meant). Both are cosmetic - I don't think the outer rockers are structural members in these cars?
If anyone were to crawl under the car and have a look, the floors, frame rails, unibody, suspension mount points etc., etc., are amazingly rust free. Easy to assume it must be rotten underneath, but it's not. Not sure what happened with that rocker - maybe it was scraped and repaired early on, who knows. It does need some lipstick and a piece of exh pipe in the middle - I think the muffler itself is fairly new. He'll have to take some floor photos and repost.
