I have a 72 that's been in storage for over 30+ years and has rust to the point the doors don't close very well. I would like some opinions on whether I should restore it or part it out.
Wanted to restore for my first granddaughters 16 b-day but she doesn't seem to have interest in it at 11. These cars have never been flashy but I thought she would kinda like it.... Well anyways what would you do if this car was yours? What should I plan for cost? Injectors been missing for 30years so it may need a rebuild plus it has 99000 miles on it Interior is in nice conditions. No tears Also is anyone from Ohio Dave [attachmentid=382 404] Attached thumbnail(s) |

buy a 5k running car in good condition, that doesn't need a paint job
then sell off or part out what you have left its the cheapest way by far.... even if your car had ZERO rust you would still end up with more than the 5K into it just to get it running and paint it |
