edit* car ended up being sold out from under me! So this is my new 510 $400 and i pick it up in a few weeks. its been sitting since 99. its a 70 and the older lady has had it since 72. she got it from the dealer and it was some sort of display vehicle... the car has lived at its current home since 72 and after it started smoking in 99 it got parked by the large shed where it is currently. She would drive it to oregon with the back seat removed hauling potatos. she has the seat and its in good shape... no floor board rust. no trunk rust. just a little rocker rust. and as you can see the only major issue is the rear quarter rust on each side in the same place. all glass is good, all lenses are good, all panels are mostly straight. door panels and dash are good. seats are horrible.

The 1/4 panel rust is likely due to a bad trunk seal and water runnign down intot the panels which had blocked drains. the good news is that there are patch panels now available from Australia for this repair.
Nice find, keep up tuned in.

Love people and use things,
because the opposite never works.
