Neat. Thanks for sharing.
Looks like it lightly ate a tire wall or guard rail - looks more than fixable. Perfect candidate to save.

How is the project coming along?
That underside looks solid, very limited rust. The rear quarter damage jumps out as the most difficult repair. I wonder if it could be pulled to save and keep the matching VIN.

One step one day at a time. Piece by piece. Take quality high-resolution photos. I intend to do another community calendar, but this time, highlight rebuild projects.

Is there leaves or a bee hive underneath?

The person I purchased the car from bought it just to flip. He purchased it from the daughter of the guy that owned it. The guy had passed away and the car sat for awhile until the daughter sold it.
Is the car still in Florida? Im curious if you can PDR some of the body damage...there is a guy in Tampa that has done really good work that looks as bad as what is on your R with a Camaro that had an incident with the tire walls at Sebring

Stin1, looks like a Magnolia seed pod. Something must have dragged it up in there though.

I believe the venue was Nopi in the early 2000 we had a company that dented 2 of the Toyota Supras and pulled out the dents for their repair work demonstration.
