If it's been sitting where it is now for years, can you imagine what the underside looks like (if there even is an underside left)?
Kind of a side story. A couple weeks ago we had an '84 Lincoln Town Car get hauled in. The plates had expired in 1997 at 41,000 miles and has been sitting ever since. It was indoors but from the looks of it, the floor of the building was damp gravel or dirt and remember this is Wisconsin on top of it all. From the outside, the car didn't look too darn bad actually, the interior was decent but smelled really bad (mouse piss I'd guess). The guy wanted us to get it running again, fix the brakes (had none), put new tires on, etc. We had to drag it into the shop with a tow strap (doors on both side of the building) because both rear wheels were locked tight. Put it on the hoist and,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,JUNK! Frame at least half gone, the trans x-member was hanging down because where it attached to the frame,,,,,,,,,,wasn't. All the brake lines and fuel lines were basically non existant. I don't mean rusty, I mean completely gone. You could literally look into the transmission through the gaping hole in the pan, one guy touched the engine oil pan and a huge chunk fell out, the rear axle cover was almost completely gone, probably could have changed the fuel pump without taking the tank out which wouldn't have been too hard since only one strap was left,,,,barely, etc, etc, etc. Never did get the hood to open. It had to be one of the worst I've ever seen anywhere. Didn't think it was even possible for a car to rust that bad. I think he got whatever scrap goes for per ton. It got picked up by one of the local yards. Turns out it was his fathers car and he passed away in '97 so it did have some sentimental value I guess.
Sorry for going off topic! lol
