Much like this thread, I dug up another one.

Assuming the VIN is still on the birdcage, technically this is a car, isn't it? Only $100- for a '74 coupe. It needs a lot of work, though.

If the bird cage is still solid and it has tags and good title it would really be interesting to see someone take on the project just to see the before and after pictures ? Just as long as it is not me !

You could buy a museum quality C3 for what that would cost to get road worthy.
