    The rear end is the least of the issues.
    The rear wing has to go. Sun roof just isn't right for the car and after market sunroofs are notorious for leaking (at least if it's wet like around here), and the lumps in the vinyl top are huge! There is going to be some serious rust there.
    It's going to need to have the vinyl top removed, rust on the roof repaired, might as well remove the sunroof and fill that hole in while you are at it, and that means new head liner.
    While you are doing all of that, you would probably address the paint and that would be the time to pull that Nissan looking wing from the trunk and weld up those bolt holes.

    That's just from a quick look at the pictures.

    Looks like the Oldsmobile spoiler. Never cared for it myself. I'd also get rid of the sunroof to prevent future issues. Plus a sunroof on a vinyl top just seems odd to me. I really don't see the roof bumps as being that bad. Deffinetly need to get fixed, but I've got alot worse than that.

    Overall I'd say it's a nice car for $5k, assuming it's a real GS 455.

    The sunroof and the GTO rear wing is just wrong.

    I agree. Strip that car down and there will be a ton of work. Even the frame has me suspicious. I wish mine had the interior options of that one. (Buckets, center console and ralley)
