That will be a really desirable car when done! Needs lots of parts but on the + side it looks like it still has the $$ 9171 MC.

I like that...wonder if the "A" pillar trim is any indication that's it's a white interior car ? Maybe a white vinyl top too  :drooling:

Hmm: Car actually looks pretty good. It would depend on what all is there but the price isn't awful considering there should be a slight premium for the colour when done. Auto and non-match hurts though.

I don't think it's the same car unless the ad is really old and the car has already been restored :looney:

No no that's just a what it could look like pic,I spoke with a fella today who owned that one that's forsale on CL back in the early 80s he was telling me about it he is pretty positive it's the one he used to own just in worse shape.

If you want to replace every piece of metal, this is the car for you! Front frame rails have nice rust holes.  See attached pic for driver side rear frame rail. Pass side hole is not as big. Rockers are bad. Floor is gone. Trunk is gone. Driver door is wrong. Trunk lid wrong. So again, 2 rust spots: the inside of the car and all of the outside of the car. Great project for the right buyer who has enough money to spend and not care if the probability of exceeding the cars worth happens. This is just my opinion and going there to buy it... 12 hours round trip. And I'm going home empty... And I'm feeling pretty good about it. Granted, I wish the car was in better shape. But pics were taken outside bc it's stored outside. One tarp over roof. Engine bay and trunk is exposed. Had snow and ice on it this morning. Could be a hard MN winter on her if she sits through it. Good luck to the next guy.

The rust wouldn't scare me....I would only concern myself with numbers and documents.....rust can be fixed.... :alan2cents:
