    Did this Dino come from Gullwing in Astoria?

    Great thread - will be following!
    Really striking just how close the Dino and 308 frame and suspension are. Looks like the same exact A-arms, suspension pick-up points, engine 'cradle' etc.

    They look dirty, but otherwise why rough?
    After stripping them, will you be checking for cracks? Maybe fluorescent penetrant testing?

    It's all very similar across the board.

    They have been painted many times and the finish is rough. Some spots are starting to bubble and chip.

    I've seen them in far worse condition- Media blasting should reveal the full litany of misdeeds done to this car by local-yokel bodymen over the past 35 years.

    I hope the owner bought it right- but with Dino values going up by the day- I would think this car is still a fairly good investment.

    I agree, it's bad but not terrible. I'm really curious to see what is hiding under the paint.
