I hate driving out to see a piece of junk. Drove over an hour once to see a "rust free" diff. It looked like it was soaked in penetrating oil for a month and was all pitted.


Looks like all these ads are about the same car(coincidence maybe?). It's pretty rough and NOM

While trying to flip it with double the price is mean, if the entire frame is in the shape of the diff X member then this is a rather decent restoration base (for $7500) and the 15-20k figure is a big exaggerated.
Edit: the scary bit is that the fuel tank cover have seen a lot of ship, don't tell any good about the rest.

It's a rust belt car, so I'm guessing the frame and birdcage is bad (no roof), since the gas tank is unusable.

But, you are right, $7500 might have been closer to the right price.
