That's terrible.  Can it be repaired or is it's purpose now to serve as a donor for trim parts?

I called the guy about it but no reply. It's an Atlas Junior rusted out. I was going to ask him if the side was folded under past the embossing and if he had the sign for the front. It might be worth $50.

Are the short sides cut down too or are they alright? How's the inside and lid?... if those are solid and tub/liner solid AND if it could be had for cheap... May be worth getting and waiting for a rough master or larger to show up and swap out embossed ends.

Looks like the front and back are cut down.
