I'm finally giving up on my restoration project due to a lack of time / money. A classic Scottsdale Runs great, 31,000 miles, very little mostly surface rust. The undercarriage is in great shape for the age, it was probably NOT a Michigan car. I put $1500 in changes, new carburetor, gas tank, locks, rear main seal, etc. Had 2 rust holes behind the rear tires and they are cut out and resurfaced. Other than that, there is just surface rust. This is a great truck for someone else to restore, or just to drive. The dashpad is cracked and will need to be replaced, the bezel and dials too. It's in working order, but they don't look nice. NOTE: I'm not 100% sure it's a V8 5.3Litre but I'm pretty sure that's the standard. Has a transmission leak by the yolk only if it's parked on a slope, slow leak, probably needs a seal or something.
