Hey guys I might be buying a shell in a few days I'm going on friday to look at it, and was wondering what should I be looking for as far as warning signs ? The shell is pretty cheap so of course the thought something could be wrong with it comes to mind. From the pics it looks really clean but what should I be looking at / looking for ? The hood looks like it has some issues but the fenders lights bumpers all look fine. Except the front bumper looked like a different color like it was repainted a diff color (a little lighter), the owner swears it's original just really faded. Anyhelp on what I should check out would be great as far as frame, rust, body ect...

Thanks

look under the car and in the rear wheel for rust...then just look for ripples in the rear 1/4s. Grab the pinch weld and give it a squeeze. If you fingers go through it then walk away lol

Check for records accident, missing or change parts. Cheap shell doesn't mean it good. You get what you pay for. Don't know what's the plan for it..
