I do think you have some good points. But you would need to see the car first hand to really see what hapened to it.
The car was in a garage that caught fire the car was not on fire. Fire burns up for the most part. The fire has damaged the body and interior and the glass was smashed out after. For the most part the wires are barely melted it rolled over on its own when we hooked up the bat. Mind you it had no spark. We plan to replace all brakes, lines, shock and suspension parts. The main thing we are after is the drive train and misc parts. This car is going to be a better donor than an 88 5.0 with 280,000KM.
The chasis builder is less than a half hour from here and the body came from an hour away nice and local for parts. Yes its a dirty job but there are some tricks to the trade. Stuff is cleaning up very well and there looks to be a lot of good parts on this car.
We have yet to find any and I mean any burnt powder coat on the frame or any steal part of the car. Even the body put up more of a fight than I would have thought. If we so much as find burnt paint on the frame we will not be using it. Gunner is right the risk is too high.

The glass is half full and just keep geting fuller.
