Rust? We junk a cheap car and buy another from the South. I think this makes even a hard core Challenger look lazy. Would you do this to save a Lada still worth nothing at the end?

I could go on for hours. Check out the full thing here. Some of the things people rebuild on Retro Rides just astound me.

Ive seen people in ohio save cars that were that rusty but normally because its really valuable or really sentimental.

Yeah, but here we're talking a car that may be worth $5k USD if in perfect condition, on a good day to a really willing buyer who left their common sense behind.

I mean, I did some work like this 25 years ago, but at least it was on a Hillman Imp so it was totally worth it!
