A great example of what not to buy when you're looking for an old German car, and of the importance of getting a pre-purchase inspection from an expert like Boulevard Auto Repair.

If you remove all the riveted plates and fibreglass there won't be much left of the underside of the car!

Yikes, looks like a good candidate for a frame off restoration. Fortunately most of that sheet metal is still available for serious repairs like these. Must not have been a California car.
