So... I live in Minnesota which is hell on my Celica. My body is not too bad in terms of rust, but the underside is getting pretty nasty. I am struggling to find motivation to do anymore to my car knowing how rusty it is. I am looking for either a rolling shell or a car that does not run. The body does not need to be in great shape, just rust free. I am not looking to pay more than 800-900. I just need a solid body that I can swap everything over to.

I wouldn't fix rust either honestly. I wouldn't buy a car with rust Repair done to it... Time you fix the rust it'll come back elsewhere.. It's.like cancer once infected it spreads... Plus sanding and body prep isn't fun at all... Than you'll need whatever area painted om the body...Around my area your looking at 5k+ for a good paint job. Sure there is 1k places but orange peal ect. Call junk yards down south and see if you can get a rust free shell. After so long they crush them anyway so you'd probably get it for under 500 after they stripped what they can sell
I mean crushing it would gain them 150-200$ tops so I'd assume they'd sell. I drove 1k miles and over paid for my celica because it was so clean inside and outside and under it. This post has been edited by Jmk91: Aug 13, 2015 - 9:31 PM |
