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.

Everyone is entitled to there own opinion. He said it's getting nasty. Nasty doesn't sound like surface rust. I can buy cars from junk yards in my area didn't know you can't do it in others. You could find a blown celica for 300-500 in the southern states rust free than swap everything and go... Vs messing with rust... Rust is never fun to mess with... Plus he said body isn't.to bad. Meaning rust on the body as well. My 5th gen celica was a local Ohio car. Body was clean the under was rusttttttt. I took it in for an alignment and they couldn't even do the rear because the thing bent in the machine from rust... He showed me on the lift how rusty it really was.
. so I sold it next week... Everyone is entitled to there own opinion. He said it's getting nasty. Nasty doesn't sound like surface rust.
