I'm 95% certain the underside of this car is clean. Geographically, it's in the right place to be resting in a field. I bet folks didn't jump on the Servpro because it was in similar tall grass and assumed it was all rotten underneath. The car is incredibly clean.

Sure it can be saved. Assuming the stub is the worst of the rust, and you are willing. Sub replacement isn't too difficult, just time and space consuming. Looks like the rear window may be leaking too. If I were after it, I would source a stub frame and plan the swap. Regasket/paint the...

We track Polaras around here. Not many that slip under our radar.

Video chat with the FK5 went well. I didn't see anything that told me to run. The seller and I made a deal. The car will be getting pulled out in the next week or so and I'll have a truck out there to bring it home.

I'll take the red ones.
