Not sure what to do with it yet, but it’s got a few cool options. 4 speed, console bucket seats, with a gold and black interior. I bought it as a parts car, but it has a title and tag, and it all matches the body and dash. Still on the fence about this…

How is it as far as rust goes?
It’s not bad in the structure area, but it needs a trunk pan and rear quarter work. It also needs the area around the rear window, the package tray and the Dutchman panel, with the car came 2 quarter skins, 2 outer wheelhouses, the Dutchman panel, at least one of the window corners, a trunk gutter, all new but not AMD. Also included was a package tray and braces cut from a donor car. The floor in the car has been redone, but it needs the 4 speed hump cut and reinstalled. There are a couple patches on the firewall, and a small bit of work on the drivers inner, but the engine bay is solid. The trunk lid is really nice, as are the front fenders and doors. It is a console 4 speed bucket seat car, none of that came with the car, the rear seat is there, the dash, 4 speed pedals most of the front end parts except maybe all the pieces from the grille, front bumper but no rear, and a shitload of other smalls that I’m sure got with the car. It’s got potential.

No motor or trans, but I have a 383 for it, no trans. 8 3/4” 3:23 rear, but no SG, at least it doesn’t act like it.

The standards for parts cars vs cars worth saving have changed dramatically in the last few years. I say piece it together and get some fun out of it.
