dont need the engine or box or interiour. just need a reasonably straight, and more importantly reasonably rustless body. no rush, just keep me in mind if you come across one ^^

put Ak in your thread title Andrew... Will keep eyes open bro, the rust free part will be nigh on impossible, especially as a shell... rust would be the main reason a person would part out in the first place!

so you want a chev sedan rolling body with gemini diff?
i think any rust in it is fixable. usual hole in the battery try thing etc and little spots here n there but should be fine for race car. - (i havnt realy looked at it for like 2 years so i could be like way rustier than i imagine. But has been under a carport thing so shouldnt be too bad

are you actual keen on sedan? im not sure if its worth selling. Cant be worth much more than scrap value and it does need rust repairs to the battery tray(has large hole where it meets the firewall and corrosion around area etc from leaky bat) and maybe a bit in the floors(not completly rotten or anything but there is rust) + there is patches of surface rust everywhere and i have no idea what the situation is like behind the front guards etc. They could be completly rotten for all i know also will pretty much need new everything like suspension and brake lines etc
im tossing up tho. I realy want to keep it and slowly chip away at it but maybe im dreaming.
someone tell me what to do im hopeless

If you have free/cheap dry storage and its out of the way, keep it. If you don't sell it.
Either it will cost you too much to store, or it will get wet and rust away before you can do anything with it anyway.
There will always be Chevettes in New Zealand, just buy one later on. Sure it will cost you a lot more than they are worth now, but that cost is covered by what it would cost to either fix your one, or store it for several years until you are flying 747's/bombing A-rabs/mowing heaps more lawns.
