It remains to find out: what the 381 code is mean?

Location: Victoria, BC, on Vancouver Island, Canada		Seems to be some poorly done metal work and bondo repairs on this one, especially the rear quarters in front of and behind the rear wheel openings. They just don't look to be formed correctly.

Location: Finland		Yes and both rocker panels seem to have been redone with bondo. Also the radiator support (the whole front of the car) is resting on the frame since the front body mount is not existing
any more. But a good projects car it is.

I remember having interest in this awhile back and passed, but couldn't remember why. All these comments are reminding me

Location: So. Cal		I agree, the bottoms of the rear quarters & dogleg have issues. Count on that needing to be completely redone. Bid to $29.5K reserve not met.

Location: Finland		29,5k would have been fantastic for a car that imo need a full resto to be usable. Look at pic 93 of 107. Have to give the seller that he is perfectly honest with
the pictures.
