1970 Monte body

[Dtret]

I’m taking offers on a slightly used 70 Monte body ( I think). Has minimal damage and very little rust. The roof is flat, the floor is not. It just rolled over so it has plenty of life left. I can cut off desired parts with my chainsaw. Please make sure all vaccinations, tetanus especially, are up to date. Positive comments welcome, negative comments expected. I do not need help selling. No lowball offers. I know what I have. Thanks for looking. 👀 ( Frame and drivetrain not for sale. I’m restoring them).

That can be saved, just a little bondo work and a little buffing 🤣

Do you deliver?

Flip it back over and check for the fiber optic cables I need to complete my Vigilite system, please.

That is all.

That was one of the first things I looked for when I got the car. I was hoping I could hold them hostage and charge you BIG BUCKS. But no such luck.

Sure, as long as you make it worth my time. lol. I don’t know if I could get it across state lines, of course I do have a Hazmat license.

Even if the scrap yard is paying 2 cents a pound, that car is worth about $4, 😁

 Maaco can fix this.

Yep not worth the gas to take it there. But I do have the frame ( 3/4 of it anyway) to go with it. That should get me to 12 bucks. 😝

No way. And if you did you’re crazier than I thought. I didn’t have to unbolt the body bushings they were all rusted out. I think the only thing holding the body to the car was the e-brake cable and the fenders.

I doubt that. My son and I did a mixed metal scrap run a few weeks ago. 600lbs = 21.00. Lol don't really scrap for money, just get rid of the clutter.

Where we go, there's all sorts of stuff on the ground, a flat tire would cost more to repair than the $21 received for the scrap.

Nowadays I don't generate near the scrap I did years ago either. I'd bring truck loads of brake drums/rotors, all sorts of body parts (hoods, doors, etc.), catalytic convertors, etc. Now, I'll just put the stuff out to the curb for garbage day, it's usually gone before I walk back to the shop, lol.

I pulled the back part of the frame apart. Boxed control arms, sway bar etc. by the time I was done and swept up the floor I do believe that I had another 10 pounds of rust. I guess I’ll bag it up for extra scrap money. 💴 

[Dtret]

More pulled apart. All that’s left is the front suspension. And then more scrap. Engine is locked up tighter than a ticks a.. ( butt).
