65 coupe
picked ours up off of ebay 2 months ago $1,100 plus $390 for it to be transported from northern Virginia to middle Georgia, interior is around 80% mint, engine/drive train in excellent condition with 110,000 original miles, (found a dozen brass plates from the late 80's to early 90's where it competed in classic car shows), factory a/c, what I have found is some sloppy rust repairs - duct tape with a light coating ? (not body filler or fiberglass) to cover the tape seams then painted over.
Currently I have it up on jack stands and am basically bead blasting the whole body then where needed I will fabricate patch panels, for the small corrosion areas and dents/dings I will use Devcon Metal Set to fill them in (used on Military aircraft instead of bondo - once cured it is almost as hard as metal will not crack/chip)
