Day she arrived for $400

Re: 84GSLSE 13BREW Swap build
lets try this again...
pics from when it first arrived... did the strip down.. ex california car.. maybe 3rd owner.. had original sale paperwork in glove box... still have it...






did a little repair, heated metal, shrunk it and grinded it some, then skim coat... believe it or not there is a thin layer of bondo on the repair...
