71 RR

Welcome from the Pacific Northwest

If you want to flip it, then don't do anything. You are only into it for 5K right now and once you tear into it there's no telling what you are going to find. You could easily find yourself at 15 just for body and paint unless you can do it yourself. Different story if you are keeping the car. If that's the case then do what you want, it's your car

Thats what i figured. There is some rust by the rear wheels on both sides. Good paint and bodywork doesn't come cheap. One of the guys i met at car show has a 71 RR completely redone. He made the car into what he wanted and its beautiful. He probably has over 40k invested into it and thats not including the purchase of car. I've attached pictur e of his. Anything mechanical i can pretty much handle. As long as back holds up. I keep hearing in my head the Billy Joel song that has a verse. At least i can polish the fenders. My apologies with placement of picture. New to this forum stuff.
