Buy it! [img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_tup.gif[/img] You can always sell it over again can't you?

You should look closely at it. It could easily take you $2,000 and a few months just to get it street legal and on the road. For that kind of money you could probably buy a driver. You may find the myriad of missing or damaged pieces to be overwhelming and expensive.

Is everyone in agreement that there should be about $500 worth of parts there if I guy eBay's the crap out of it? I think that if it is too much of a project, I will buy it anyway just to part it out[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_spin.gif[/img]

If it has the blank fenders (no trim holes) those fenders have good value but if they have holes (for trim) those are hard to sell. If I'm at a pick a part and see a blank fender I'll buy it in a heartbeat. If it had a V-8 grab the frame mounts and sell them on Ebay. To me if you bought the car for $500 parted it out you would make some money above what you paid for it, but is it worth all the work, taking it apart and shipping parts ? Now if you got it at the right price (Cheap) then strip it and store the parts for a few years sell them and then make some money because good clean sheetmetal is getting harder and harder to find. I'll give you a example I own a 69 Camaro and good clean fender I used to buy for $50 bucks are now $500 (not the cheap China restamped ones) and still climbing it's crazy. Just my $.02

That is what I was thinking..(getting it cheaper than $500) If it is too much to do I will part it.

As for the fenders, I think they are going to have the trim holes since it is a Deluxe.

Thanks for the input everyone, I will keep you posted and try to post pics on Sunday night...

I am going to look at it this afternoon... I will take some snap shots. Remember I may want this thing[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] But if for some reason I don't I will let you in on the location (my garage[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_lol.gif[/img])

I am pretty sure that I am going to buy it no matter what...if it is a pile, I will part it out, If it is savable I will save it[img]/phpBB/images/smiles/icon_spin.gif[/img]

HOW DO I POST PICTURES????

It is missing the windshield and back glass, engine/trans, trans crossmember, some of the stainless, seat, and gauge cluster... It is very rust free (except the surface rust) and they did a decent job replacing both rear quarters
