Dude,
got a couple of doors here in Jersey at a few yards and one a Century motors in Phila. As for rust free? That's a tough one. Good luck.

Sounds like he wants you to commit insurance fraud. Don't do it.

i havnt driven it till just now and the car studders hard and stumbles on stops at signs and lights an it doesnt if i cali roll and does great at highway speeds but low preasure on pedal is very stumbly and studdery and i beleive its the carb something internally was messed up its running very bad and wasnt like this before.

Still sounds fishy to me. first he didn't have insurance and now all of sudden his grandma has him on her policy. Sounds like he's been in this kind of trouble before.

the way he worded it is he didnt know he had insurance he thought hes been drive around uninsured but really grandma was paying this whole timetomorrow i will know more the door is nice at wildcats. but the car is running like shit he musta hit it hard cus it is funky studder and stumble at evrey stop i fixed this issue a year ago but this time im afraid it not just a timing and mixture check.

It's good you kept all receipts and your upgrade list. All the insurance company will see is just a plain 77 aspen worth only XX amount of dollars. Don't let them lowball you or even sign anything until you get quotes from bodyshops. They also need to be made aware of any hidden damage that could have been caused by the accident.

sounds good my dad said its either fuel system or timing or vac leak......the estamater gave me a low ball 854.00 for the damage and needless to say the insurence company sided with me and didnt total her out and are sending a check now for 1651.81 for the damage an no salvage title.

they said she was in fair condition i agree mostly for the terrable previous paintjob someone did , the estamater said there is no paint left on the car for money to be granted for repaint.......screw him!

Sorry-but it takes the same time and effort to pull hinges as it does to pull doors.I really dont want to expose the interior to the elements for the price of the hinges. But thanks for the offer.
