She seems to think that they both need to be stripped down and what is left gotten rid of. Even if I did that, would need somewhere to keep the parts. So what do you do???
That is very good to hear. I'd hate to seen another one go to the salvage yard.
My current daily driver is like yours, the D/S 1/4 panel had nothing in it but waves and wrinkles, the tail lights were busted out, and the bumper cover was broken and laying on the ground. If I can find the pics of it I will post them later. I spent $1200 at my favorite body shop (owned by a shirt-tail relitive) and got the old gal back up on the road (see my TC in the showroom James Bird). I just have to replace the side marker lights and body molding and get the scratches that the neighborhood kids put in it with their damn bike handle bars fixed (the thing is scratched from one end to the other...damn kids) with a new paint job from top to bottom.
