finally got my car last saturday after having it spoke for for a long time, got it at 11 am and by 8pm we had it stripped, running good, and the trunk tucked how i got it, and yes it had no fender or bumper RUSTY, the bottom of both quarters are gone, and so is drivers floorboad trunk floor is spotless tho interior is gross cuz of passenger side windows being broke for years hooked up the boat gas tank to try to get it running we got the back seat stripped out cut the trunk lip off to make tucking easier was told fuel pump was out, turns out it was just the coil so we took that off my other 400 and now it runs real good trunk is now tucked, also not in the pic is the 4 other connection points and it is also now U'd and one quarter panel is creased another real clean car minus the rust, meaning there is no dents in it, have done more, will get pics later

yea i guess it is bad but it could also be a good thing in case another car comes along your way that way you can build another

got all plugs changed and plug wires... didnt do to much this weekend, ordered a gas tank from M&M boys so waiting for that to show up...... going to get a 79 grand marquis in the A.M for a 80s show in June during Mandan Team Destruction... that car will get ran over a month before this one, so once i get that car that will be priority over this one unfortunately

turns out i am taking this to the Mandan Team Destruction derby instead of that 79 Merc as this will be a much easier and faster build for those rules.... still waiting on my BSR slider driveshaft to show up, and my demoderbypitstop.com shifter... also looking for someone to get a BBM engine mounted gas pedal from..... also found a fender and a 8 3/4 rearend, just gotta go get them yet
