    It has some rust by the back bumper and its a four door. The only thing I can see missing is the hubcaps. Engine is all there and I haven't seen if its stuck.
    Anyway I'm hiding this from my wife and I'm loosing my storage in may so its up for sale.
    But what is a four door shoe box worth....I'm clueless.
    Thanks for the help

    Got to at least be worth the cost of installing the ac system? Good score. Stu

    No idea what it's worth, but it's a cool car and worth doing something to preserve it.

    Cant believe I thought this was going to be another DRAMA thread. I feel so ashamed!
    Good to see ya got something for your labor LOL.
    Someone will want to chop it and make it a 2 door. Heck its only steel.
    Put triple what your time was worth on it and put it up for sale.

    That looks like the basis for a nice entry level family cruiser for someone on here. Truth be known you will probably get an offer from someone on here before the day is out.

    Pay it forward. Make some money but hook someone else up on a real good deal.

    Tell your wife the deal, you did an a/c job and the guy couldnt pay, he gave you the car, now you just have to sell it to recover your $. BUT.... no one ever buys it.
     
  20. Good score , now grow a big pair and tell the wife it's for her !
