Those wheels and openings look ridiculously small for that car. Makes the quarter panels and fenders look 2 stories tall.

Those wheels are period correct, tires are hard to get for something that small
HTR200s are what I have on the GT6. It's a nice all-season tire, but if he has a trackday on them they must not have much left....

I don't know what you are referring to..
This B210 is as solid as any you will ever find. There are absolutely NO patches in the floors , arches, rockers, door bottoms, etc.
The pass door was replaced before, and the rear fender, behind the wheel, had been bent and repaired some time in the past. It is the only area of body repair, other than the very small dings all over, that you can see feathered out.
I hate newly painted cars, because there is always the question of what is beneath the paint...so.. we took numerous pictures of the body , before and during , while it was in the paint shop, so nothing is hidden
The HTR200's were not the primary tire on the 510... They are hardly worn, and are 90% or more

Well just look around the hinges, under the hood and other places on the body and you'll see rust all over. The floor pans aren't the only places you'll find rust, although I did have to glass my whole passenger floor and eliminate the passenger seat on mine.
In reply to carguy123:
well every 40 year old car has surface rust, before it gets restored.. that surface stuff gets cleaned and properly refinished..
I am talking about rust DAMAGE ..that needs patching or replacement
I been at this over 50 years..I learned it's cheaper and better to spend the money to ship a car from California, than to work with cars like yours that need to have the floors patched with glass,
That doesn't mean glassing the floors and doing a Maaco paint is bad... it is often a good way to go... it's just not our way, when doing a car that will probably be around for another 40 years or more
All we did to these floors is pressure wash, scuff, primer, and paint ... then put the seats back in
