Ad says it's a 78 or 79 car. Looks like a chrome bumper on the right rear? Maybe a 73? Not much there for parts, maybe a door or a few minor parts.

I agree with you on the year BB, and I think they are about 849.00 dollars too high. Or maybe
they are paying 850.00 to haul it off.

How about that right front tire? It looks like a skinny truck tire.
You might get 800 bucks out of the parts. Maybe.
