New project car, need opinions

I'm considering buying this '65 beauty. The seller says it needs 'slight recommissioning,' but I can definitely see it needs a bit more than that. Still, I think it could be great as a first project. What do you guys think?

TDFS - Project Car Builders / Touge / Mountain Racing Community Lounge

How's it going fellow enjoyers?

Hope I'm not intruding. I noticed a lot of people here liked mountain racing and rally and wanted to create a space where the Touge community and sim racing fans can clash together and mutually bond over burnt rubber.

All jokes aside, I'm just trying to find like-minded people to kick back and Touge it out with. We recently launched our own Touge servers with a custom car pack that’s truly unique. We’re talking:

  • Foxbodys
  • E34s
  • Screaming E60 V10s
  • Evo 9s
  • Trailblazers (WTF?)
  • Suzuki Cappuccinos (Hayabusa swapped!)

From JDM to EDM to GDM—we’ve got all the domestic markets covered.

Our community isn’t just about racing; we’ve got a bunch of media channels, including:

  • Show-your-cars
  • Show-your-diecasts
  • Show-your-track
  • Show-your-food (because we all know Touge enjoyers gotta keep a good diet going)
  • Show-your-runs (Touge runs: real or Assetto)
  • Show-your-FB-hunts (FB Marketplace hunting sessions daily)

And much more! Everything Touge related in one place!

Hope to see you around brodie. Join the fam if you get the chance—we can battle it out because the practice never stops. I appreciate your time, so swing by and say hello sometime!

We also have a guide channel to help people get started if they’re new. All you need is a PC!

Is she too far gone to even attempt the money pit repair job?

Saw this car on Facebook Marketplace, and it's kind of hard to come buy. Obviously this car has been through it, with the side and rear panels having holes in them.

Would this be something even worth attempting trying to repair, or would it probably be way too rusty to even have a professional attempt to remove rust and restore body panels?
