    LOL i think the best way to fix that would be take any good parts off and put them on another mav. thats a LOT of rust in one pic!

    I got doors and fenders that eliminates that rust and i gort quarters and rockers to i just think its a rare car White interior is an all time favorite. If it didnt have a title i would junk it.

    going by those pics it looks like every body panel will need replaced. That definately does not look like a buildable car imo
