I bought this car for $200. It was sitting for 10 years on someone's driveway. I was able to get it going again in less than 3 weeks. I rebuilt the carb, brake master cylinder, clutch master cyl, fixed the key ignition, trunk lock, rear brake pistons shoes and hoses, front brake pads and hoses, timing, vacuum routing, rubber hood cones, replaced top, fixed all switches and all lights inside (except fasten seat belt light) put new speakers in (behind the seats is the best spot), fixed radiator fan, cleaned interior, fixed leaky brake warning switch, put newer used seats in, put a armrest in, put the maplight in, fixed speedo, I sewed blue vinyl front bumper covers, replaced headlight farring. I still want to replace suspension and steering rubber, drop that dusty O/D tranny in which is in the garage, paint the wheels and light faring, put in the dual SU's and manifold which I have coming in a couple days. One picture below was taken on the first day of ownership. The others were taken 3- 4 weeks later.
