EDIT: Nevermind. you answered the engine question below. But what was wrong with the body?
I don't know what happened to the flat six. I might have been a runner. Don't care I tossed the engine in the trash as soon as the car came to my house.

The skin came from a salvage guy in Florida. The skin looked like it got swiped in the right rear corner. I slapped it on my truck and took it home. Cheapest way to get an FD now a days.
