I'm betting that the frame is damaged. It would take quite a lot of movement to make that passenger quarter buckle at the top the way has and the bumper doesn't appear to have moved enough to have made it happen.

I had the repairs quoted and it was VERY cheap to fix

3K would be very cheap to fix that.
Unless you don't bother to spray any color over the repairs.

Just looked at his photobucket pics. Thinking the same as 'inda60s Whatever they backed over, I doubt it was a hay bale. shoot the sail panels are wrinkled too.

Oh the original spare tire? a futura radial.

These FISHER GTOs came with radial spare tires. Also, they were used as a test market for the new Rally II wheels that were scheduled to come out on the '67 models.

Possibly a little steep on the price and there is a lot of 'truth stretching' in the ad but all that aside...it's an awfully nice driver quality '65 GP project...or at least it was.
