Hi All,
Picked this up locally-haven't decided what to do with it yet-fix and drive or sell it as is or part it out.
The Good: Excellent running slant, 904 auto, power steering, decent brakes, good exhaust, trunk floor appears sound and decent tires.

The Bad: Front suspension is shot, interior is trashed, needs drivers side floorpan and a windshield.

The car was originally a medium metallic blue which I would much prefer over the dark blue or I could paint it white......or .....what would you do with it?
Thanks
Todd

Personally I wouldn't part it out. I'd probably do the floor pan and might do some front end work. Lower control arm bushings and steering parts are safe bets as they don't have to be changed if someone wants to upgrade the brakes. Since the car needs a headliner do that while the windshield is out or leave them both for the next owner.

Defininitely fix it or sell it. It sounds as though the body is basically sounds except for thr floor pan; sounds like a keeper to me.
