Currently it's a pile of shit, but it's my pile of shit. Currently has 125k miles and runs strong. Nice interior for its age and everything works. My problem is the frame is rotted. Ultimate plan is to fix it even if it takes me years lol. If it's too far gone, I might part it out or pull the body off, shorten the frame, weld in a roll cage and make a red neck go-kart. I prefer to fix it though. I'm still waiting on weather to take some pics under it. It's either been really cold, snowing or like the past couple days warmer but raining so everything is soaked. For the right offer i would sell but as of now I'm looking to keep the pile.

Get pics of the damage. I'd say do a frame swap, find a rolled car with a good frame and use it. Put the junk body on the junk frame and make a demo derby car.88 Town Car (wrecked, for sale)

+1 frame swap off a rust free wreck.

I'm not able to buy one right now, but do you guys have any idea of the price range of a rust free frame? I've looked in some places and have had a hard time finding it. The closest junk/scrap yard to me doesn't even have a website.Comment

I've tried to find a local one with a solid frame that needs what mine has. No luck yet, the junk/scrapyard nearest to me doesn't even have a website lol. If I could find one that needs a drive train and maybe an interior that would be nice.Comment
