I bought an 87 FSB back in September. It's a 4.9 six with manual tranny. It has a little rust in the bottom tailgate and one small hole on driver side very back section. Other than a quick drive most every weekend, I don't drive it as all...heater core bypassed and it's been too cold to work on it. With the warm weather we had last weekend, I decided it was time to start fixing her up....had new exhaust installed Friday, pulled the vinyl up and Rhino lined to interior flooring on Sat and Sun. Also sanded/primered the hood to get her ready for paint. Here's my issue: I know someone with a '93 for sale at a good price, V8 with power options. Only problem is rusted fenders. Paint looks pretty decent otherwise. Should I buy his and sell mine? I've seen the fender panels on Bronco Grave Yard for $35/ea. How much cost is involved in cutting old out and welding new in? I'm just thinking long term. Any advice from you guys would be most appreciated!
