I have a Texas parts car that is drivable. ('86 sport) I plan to sell it after I take the parts I need for my '87 T-top. (power options, right fender, psgr seat). Would it be better to strip it totally down to a rolling space frame & cradle so a buyer can see its condition? Or should I leave what I don't need on the chassis?

I would like to have it. Take only what you want and pass it on. I might have everything you need already on the shelves.....

Pass it on if you can, too many are trashed and smashed already.

It's been neat working on a Texas car after all the rusty Michigan cars I've had.

Yes it isn't bad, as I mentioned my 88 was a Texas car. I had a few bolts that were stubborn. My current car is from Kentucky and it isnt to bad on rust.

Back in the 60's I had a Rambler station wagon that rusted in half where the front end joined the unibody.

I contacted him right after his accident and said I had everything he needs to effect repairs and got no response from him........
