Ugly Betty

[Bob Martin]

Here are some pictures of a GTX I picked up recently. I call here Ugly Betty even though she's a real sweetheart because of the amateur attempts at rust repair have left her very much out of the running for the Homecoming Queen title. She only has 94,xxx original miles and the engine is a real sweet sounding jewel, but with the stick exhaust (when's the last time you saw one of those???) she isn't going to set any land speed records. Anyway, soon to be for sale but I want to go though her one more time so I can honestly say what does and what does not work.

Here are some close ups of the quarter panels. The driver's side floor pan has a fiberglass patch in it as well. It's all fixable if someone really wants to.

when rust is that bad, what do you do?

Usually I part out the car. This one only has 94,xxx miles so I hate to do that. Plus there is little to no market for the parts anymore. So, I'll take it too the body shop and spend three times as much as I would ever get out of it on rust repair and paint.

not bad condition overall, just alot of filler.
