The underside didnt look too bad. Probably could use a good media blasting from top to bottom.
I thought only the 85/86's had those rear bumpers and bubble glass. Guys have i missed something?

I just called around last week for media blasting. I recieved to very different quotes. keep in mind you have to totally strip the car bare. I mean everything has to come off. One company quoted me $800, and another $2500. However the $2500 guy was way more detailed in describing to me exactly what they would do to the car, and why its worth it .As well he stated that I should tour his shop first. So I guess maybe we get what we pay for. But if you Media blast the car it wont have a spot of rust on it, and you can start totally fresh.
If your going to do a real resto, its probably worth the money.

thanks for the info hope I get it. that will definitely be list of things to do.
Well spoke with the owner today and he has it waiting for the HS shop teacher to look at it it does not look good for me but on the other hand it had been siting for 8 years and until I came along maybe nothing would have been done there are more out there hope to find one soon the thing is I offered him quite a bit of money.
Well it certainly dosent hurt to try. Best of luck, let us know what happens.
