Sorry but not much as is. List it for 4000 or best offer and see if antone wants a project and take what you get...
You.might get 250 to 400 for the motor.
1000 for the tranny
400 for the tires if they are less than 5 years old and have A lot of tread.
Then a little here and there for the interior parts and doors

Hard to truly tell much with little photos on my phone. But the body looks pretty good.
I'd guess around 4K.

Worth more if it was parted out but that requires a lot of labor, time, shipping etc. and at the end of the day not worth it IMO. For a AS-IS where is come and get it price I would list it for $3K and call it a day.

Price it to sell, not be for sale.

depends on frame and cage. if really clean advert as such with pics. there are people who paid 10k and found out their beautiful car is about to break in half. they would be really happy with a straight solid body to pop their motor and interior into. if rusted bad, not worth much more than the headlights, t-tops and doors.

Agree with the 3k statement, price to sell.
You can get a nice driver example for 1012, even 8k so imo 4k is gonna be hard to get (could be wrong though)
To ask a grand for the trans it better work pretty well otherwise the buyer could be a lil upset. Couldnt pay me to part out a car just not worth it most times.

Expert needed. Pass for me I'm too old to start a restoration.
