I like that- not sure I $9500 like it though.

I guess the value equation is rust-free body + minitub & spring relocation + wheels & tires.
I like it, in spite of the browniness...
If I had an engine & trans, I could get pretty tempted at $7500 or so; more so if it was blue or red or green.
Put any kind of steam in the thing, and you'll need to deal with the 11.50 part of the rulebook.
And probably a Dana & subframe ties.

I like it too. Finding a rust free A body is tough. Does still seem a little pricey though. I would never pick that color, but seeing it on the car it's very unique and I think I'd leave it.

i would pound out that right front fender to better fit [? biggrin] the trim strip and leave the color as is.
cool little car. maybe not 9500 worth, but cool nonetheless.

Is it just me, or do the tires in the back-end picture need to be bigger?

Yeah, someone mis-judged the track width; it's a bit narrow. More wheel offset would fix that.
The fender could look a lot better with some paintless dent repair, so the patina could remain.
Paint just looks oxidized, and I think a good polishing would hop that up a lot.
