Hi everyone,
First of all, thanks for having me. I'm obviously a new member. I was also over a "A bodies only" a while back when I still had my 65 Dart.
I was recently given a 1968 Polara. The car is a 4 door hardtop, 318 with factory air. Engine runs, brakes are good, body will need work, and the frame has some rot.
I'm mainly here to see what you might be able to offer for advice when it comes to repairing the frame. The car was free, so at this point I have nothing in it. The car is in really good shape for being a Maine car, aside from the frame. I'm willing to put maybe 1000-1500 into the car to get it on the road. Aside from the frame, it will only need rear leaf springs to be on the road. The body work can be done after.
I've attached some pictures for reference. The photo of the frame is the worst area. The rest is rusty but solid. The floors are all solid as well.
So, how much do you guys think it will take to fix this frame?
