It is amazing that you can tell that much from a photo without having seen the car...
It's amazing that you can't see what is so clearly evident from the photos, but what's more surprising is that don't seem to have the imagination to understand what the back story might be to such a sale. Seller is not hiding anything, and is making it clear what he's selling and what else he has.
It's not rocket science. It's clearly an abandoned restoration. Bodyshell too far gone to be an economical repair, owner bailing out before it's too late. Probably a very sensible decision. A car with that kind of corrosion is only worth saving if it's historically important or very high value, and even then you'd probably not want to be paying full professional rates for the work to be done.
It's a lesson you'd be wise to pay attention to, but of course you don't have the wit or the wisdom to take heed.
Photos preserved for reference:
Seems alright to me....
Not scared by a few holes or a bit of rust......
