im looking into buying this car, it looks like it's definately been around the block a time or two throughout its thirty four years. The body needs alot of work, mostly in the rear end where it was hit on the drivers side quarter panel and on the right side rear wheel well is rusted out. the thing that caught my eye though, was that the odometer only reads 1,600 miles! well when i looked under the car i see that the crossmember has fallen[my guess is from when it was hit from the side on the back] and the tailshaft of the tranny and the driveshaft are angled down in a wideV shape. the crossmember and the frame rails didn't seem to be rotted out . Is this fixable by just jacking the tranny up and bolting the crossmember back on? possibly new tranny mount? help is greatly appreciated
