achalfin,

exactly what I was thinking.
Saw the rear end, all I thought was Brock coupe (or Daytona coupe).

I can't imagine the work it would take to bring something like that back to driveable condition, and you know what it would be worth? Not much more then maybe 1/10th of the money put in. It's not a collector vehicle, it has no famous documentation or racing heritage.
Sounds like a good way to turn ben franklins into pennies.

good luck to the winning bidder,
trw

It could have probably been a pretty nice car at one time.

It scares me looking at it, I can't imagine the amount of work needed to make it operable again. Way over my head and for what.

That looks like a 70's shop class project gone terribly wrong.
