Kube, "So, lots of lipstick to hide the pig." Yep! Outside the auction houses would be a place to sell mil gauges to measure the thickness between the surface you see and the actual car. They are pretty simple to use but so is a refrigerator magnet.

I have never attended an auction and certainly wouldn't spend any money there. Last year, one of our RG members bought 2 cars at a "large Arizona" auction, one made it a block before rust and crap from the tank plugged up the fuel system and the other car's brakes failed while still on the auction grounds. Had to have both shipped home to the PNW.
