    Not only that Tedy, but it's obvious to me the bondo was applied thick over unrepaired rust. That's part of the reason you see it cracking. This is one to stay away from.....

    Exactly...... I can't believe the slip shot repair on that wheel well mostly. Not only was the wheel well molding not removed before a gallon of bondo was troweled in, but not even a attempt to some what straighten the molding, let alone keep it off of it to begin with.

    Bondo should be used to finish mild imperfections after proper body work is done, but not as the sole means for rust repair.

    Yes there's rust, the owner is honest to post these pics The rust is in all the usual places when it's being driven not from being parked somewhere. But if you go into it knowing all this I think it is totally worth saving... This old gal is very pretty, just needs a little loven...

    The owner claims this car is a driver and everything works. For a 40 year old, hard working wagon I think it needs a good home by someone who'll fix her well used body.

    This rust-bucket GM clam is back and has moved from Washington state to Pittsburgh.

    "Couple of Bubbles." LOL.

    Also looks like it originally might be a vinyl roof wagon - note the chrome moldings at the bottom the rear window pillars.
