Heya Wolf,

Most of us started out just like you, so no worries there

Damn that car looks like someone mistreated it allright... Time to start stripping and finding out whats underneath it all. Do you have any space for something like that? You really should start with pulling some of the interiour out, the bumpers off, the lights off and all that sorta thing. A lift to check the underside of the car would be very important too.
This car looks like the body really needs to be looked at first. Seeing your remark of what you paid for for the car a nice respray for the time being is out of the question I guess so it will be important to remove as much rust as you can and put a thick coat of some sort of paint on so that by the time you do have the money to spray your car, it won't be all rusted away.

If its still running I wouldn't worry to much about the engine. Those things will last and last. First make sure that cars gonne be a keeper. Does look like you got a good find though. I see some bad spots on the pictures, but at the same time, some of the major headache parts seem to be good. Need better pictures to say for sure though.
