I MEANT, "What ABOUT a very quick-time 'flipper?"'
'Point is: I don't think these guys are doing a proper RESTORATION in 4 or
5, etc., days.
What they're doing is cleaning, sanding, painting, etc., to make 'em look
good until cash is "in hand."

Yes, a good RESTORER - part of the point. What a very quick-time
"flipper?"

The good restorers replace rusted panels and cut out all floor and frame
rust as well as media-blasting.

SInce they don't expect to drive these forever, they probably don't
care all that much to do their due diligence.
"Tars" - I like that one.

I 'spose you guys have seen the TV show "Texas Car Wars" and coupla other
such car flipping shows. Rusty heap cars are "rescued" from junk/salvage
yards, and most of them don't seem to get much more than new paint,
upholstery, shiny wheels, tars, sometimes another used engine and/or
tranny, etc.; cars often flipped/sold in a week or less. Buyers don't
seem to ever look under them. In spite of all that shiny new paint,
upholstery, etc., how can they not basically still be rusty POS?
