Hi   J.C and Charlie.

When I bought my project Pantera all people said I was mad.
It was in primer and look like h...l

but is not at all so rusty that I`ve seen on other "nice" looking cars with 
the paint shining in the sun.
totally restored ( meening: fill all the rust hole and dings with bondo) 
with new paint
I rather have a car without rust issues than I can use as hard as I want.
insted of a car  so full of rust that is dangerous to drive ,but the paint 
shines nicely!

since I didn`t was able to see the car before I bought it. but have to trust 
the photos I was really nervous what I`m going to get.
It turned out to be a lot better than I expeckted. Lucky me!


Just some comments from Norway ( soon covered in snow :-(  )
