    This car has been for sale before. Look VERY closely at both rear quarters, they are friendly and "wave" at everyone. Look at the left rocker panel, same thing

    At a quick glance, it looks pretty good, but as noted, the rear quarters leave more than a little to be desired. It is also a pretty low-optioned car, too. When both quarters are looking like that, though, I have to wonder what caused both quarters to suffer damage. Is there a major rear-end crash in this car's history?

    if they are dents and not bondo if your like me and USE it for a truck then who cares! LOL! if it was owned by someone elderly it is possible that they had a hard time driving later in life and had a hard time hitting the garage door opening. My grandmothers wagon was marked up a bit from going in the garage(thankfully just got the chrome strips) as some were skinny doors like hers

    My worry would be rust covered over with poor bodywork and lots of mud

    Look at the bottoms of the doors, below the lower character line. LOTS of body work there, too.

    One thing i have learned after driving HUNDREDS of miles to look at cars,NEVER depend on pics to tell the actual condition of any car.These the quality sux badly so it's hard to tell whats what. If they were better quality definately could make a better judgement. LOL but then again maybe thats WHY they suk!

    I highly doubt they are useage dents. The car has been painted, as you can tell by the spare tell well being body color and not black, it has had body work done. Take a magnet with if you go, bet it don't stick on the car anywhere besides the hood and roof
