    other than maybe the wheels....you got about $50 worth of parts at best that you will sell off that car.
    so to save you the time, I will give you $50 for it :thumbs2:

    I absolutely agree. Everyone who has seen my '72 daily driver knows good and well it's a parts car. It would take an astronomical (IMO) amount of work to save it, despite the fact that the floors are relatively nice, and the torque boxes are solid. Literally, the roof and rocker panels would be the only exterior body panels on the car that don't need extensive work, or outright replacement. The guy I bought it from was using it for parts, and had it for sell as a parts car when I bought it. So what, the car is structurally solid and safe. I cleaned it up, beat it into shape, and have thus far put over 85,000 miles on the car and had a blast with it. I don't have to worry if I get stuck in the rain, I don't have to worry if it gets snowed on, I can drive it every day without worry. I love it.

    Bondo that hooptie up, Earl Scheib it, and drive the wheels off of it.
