Restoration of an 1800 1800

posted by  someone claiming to be Art on  Tue Mar 5 11:03 CST 2002 [RELATED]

One major problem with the 1800 is rust. I would rather replace a bad engine than a fender on an 1800. Mechanicals are the least of your worries if you decide to make this car your project. I bought an ES with minimal rust and it has been a dream to work on. so remember when you look to buy these cars search the entire thing for body rot. look for bubbled paint. tap the panels and listen for bondo. especially check wheel wells, floor pans, rocker panels, and jack points.
