im considering a cheap 74thing, looks good, solid floors, solid rockers, original seats etc, BUT there are vertical cracks behind the front fenders, just in front of the mirrors, closer to the ground.

car's 1500$ (and it drives), is it still worth it?

Sounds like cracking bondo...

Never good, but not horrible, sounds like a good deal.

if there is bondo cracking in the front quarters, sounds like there may be some underlying rust at the fender mounting areas. look inside the front fenders to see how solid things are. this is a common place for rust.
