I would let that one go to the scrap yard if I were you. You'd have to little to start with in my opinion.

Where is "Around Here"? Maybe someone on the site knows of one near you or could help you find something. Welcome by the way.

Do the math first. Make a list of all the parts you will need. Get on the net and find prices for those parts including shipping. Add it all together. Then multiply it by two. This is probably what it will cost you if you do the work yourself, not including paint. If you have the money, time and desire then maybe. If not keep looking. (I would keep looking, just my opinion.)

That's not a project car. That's a parts car. HUGE difference between the two.

Keep looking.
