Here ya go....but this one wasn't too far gone, even after 30 Ohio winters--I welded this all up (and a lot more besides) and now it looks like new!

Considering I took that picture in 1984--with a 35mm film camera--and had to scan it onto the computer...I'm learning!  That's Wolfgang, the '69 I bought new...

That cars rust is one hell of an endeavor. I would have considered a replacement chassis.

Wow! Great responses from others.  I guess I'm not the only one who enjoys the "Projects"  Any idea what the BMW sticker is to the right of the shift pattern on the dash of my first photo?

 

Also, here is another photo from my travels.
