Re: New acquisition, definitely NOT a muscle car.
No electric conversion here.
Waiting for parts for my Studebaker so thought I would look over the GT a bit.
Other than that little bit of rust under the battery tray (and the tray itself, which is partly gone) this really is a zero rust car. The belly pan is very close to dent free, which is very unusual, because with that long nose, they were always getting scraped on parking blocks. Will not be difficult to patch that one rust hole. Will only need to cut out about 1 inch by 3 inch section.
Bumper has one slight imperfection. I am pretty sure I can straighten it without chipping the chrome. It fits perfectly and took zero persuasion to get all the bolt holes lined up. It doesn't even need to be rechromed.
Only things missing so far: front grill and the muffler.
