Road Runner Nest

alright hey guys im new to this forum, and ive been recently in to the roadruner, 71or 72 lol, my father had one at 17 and ya, he showed me once and i fell in love.

So im in montreal and i found one here, its beautiful. ther interior looks amazing and ya teh paint is ok. but thats no problem. the problem is the drivers side frame rail is cracked, now hes sellign the car fro 6,500 canadian. i already sat in it, it coudl start up because he put in a new fuse and it was leaking so he didnt want to take any chances, and here i am hereing people either telling me it cant be welded no problem and then other peopl are telling its not worth it, the car is finished. now i need you guys to inform as much as possible, i woudl appriciate it.

thank you
anthony

Is it really cracked?Or is it just rusted badly?.If its cracked,depending on location,check the car over very,very good,it could have been in an accident,ive never heard of frame rails just cracking.(Unless its a 71-72 plymouth deal,:lol:)If everything else is fine im sure the crack can be fixed.And when you say the car is finished,what do u mean?Is it a project?

Whats 6,500 Canadian currency worth in the USA??

well i dont knwo my fatehr and i went and check the car and ya i still gotta bring it to the garage to check it out before anything but of what i knwo so far the car on the drivers side fender well in side the frame is cracked, and like i gotta see hwo big this crack is because the guy said i stopped driving it because i brought to a mechanic and told him stop driving this, its gunna break down. and basicllay i meant this car is finished meaning people were telling me this car is over because playing wiht the frame is not worthi it, mineswell just go to get the car done and spend 20k so that you get in it and you could start it up and drive it home lolol. butt ya its beautiful this car,, i cant stopppp. so september will be the month , hopefully!!!!!!

the cost in the states might be around 8000.00
but honestly this car is in good condition, but the grill and bumper are painted black aswell wiht the hwole car, so when i get it those bumpers there goign to go get dipped in chrome :):)

so guys help me out, do you think its worth it, finxing the whole frame rail?

Can you post some pictures of this crack?

IF the frame is not BENT anywhere else, I'd say yes. You can weld in a frame rail cap. But the thing of it being cracked has me curious/suspecious.

I'd make sure nothing else isn't bent on it before welding a cap on it.
