- For starters, i can see the backing plate for the jack post and it seems largely intact. That's usually one of the first things to fall off.

- Secondly, the top is off yet the door gaps look fine. On a severely rusted tub, it's usually the top that prevents the car from folding.

- There appears to be no visual damage and the front hood lines up nicely with the headlights and the curve of the body in front.

- I can't see the garage floor peeking through the long.


Is that enough for 'ya?
