That looks like a great project for someone, but I would be more interested in the red one in the garage.

 The rear window seal is GONE. It had some rain get in. Guy had it sitting outside.  I keep it covered now.

  I have a couple of projects that I am looking at, but could be coerced into seriously looking at this one. I looks like a a good base for my "mild" custom ideas and since it needs a lot of work anyway, it would fit right in with my plans. I would make sure that you get your money out of it. Keep me in mind.

  Basicly, I would like to know the condition of the frame, engine and if it is a clear title. If the initial cost is high and not a lot repair wise it is a reasonable project. If the initial cost is cheap but a lot in repair cost, then it may not be worth attempting. An undamaged car would also be a help. I look at the cost of the overall project. Was a carfax ever run on the car? The pictures I've seen so far are tempting, waiting for engine pics.

As far as I know you cannot Carfax anything prior to 17 digit VIN's. There are a few cracks in the fiberglass. I have the clear title.

Engine is not running, If I don't sell it, I plan on pulling it and having it rebuilt. Joel might get the tranny to rebuild.

 I have to swipe the wifes camera and take the pics, left mine in Kuwait. Been busy...haven't had a chance yet.

  Don't really mind "fib" cracks. Been playin with glass for years. Don't care if engine is running, I do my own mechanicals. Since it's a 4 gear, I'll rebuild it my self - I din't do auto's. Frame condition, your best guess will do. All interior parts with it? Anything extra that could be included? I'm putting together a cost of the projects to see which is going to maybe be the least expensive for me. I'm working in a budget here.
