The first two show how much 'play' there is in the front subframe of the car.

The last pic... anyone know what that harness is for?  The one it plugs into has two wires looped back on it.  It was located behind the dash near the cluster area.

We're considering using a sawzall to remove the front portion of the car to ease getting the motor & trans out.  Considering the Ohio weather has done half the work for us, I think it's doable.

I didn't even get a picture of how the driver's side rocker is rusted through from front to back nor how the floor pan is separated from the rocker.  This car is an odd duck for sure.  Body rotted to hell and very clean interior and good-running engine... sheesh.

Don't forget how you can see through the trunk floor on the driver side. I'm all for cutting the car for the trans/motor removal eaiser.

I think the rear quarter rust is more common than strut tower.  This car's body is... as Claude said.... fuct.

Agreed. I will say the driver side is MUCH worse the the passanger side though. Not sure why
