I bought this with intention of parting it out but after digging into the car it may be a rescue ( but not for me) . Manufacturing date 2/73. The car sat for the last 20 years under a tarp with resulting condition.
It comes with a GA engine ( not original) that is a core but does rotate. It has a carburetor. Transmission should also be considered a core.
The good (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)
Body appears to have no real collision damage……although passenger door appears to have bondo. Gaps for doors and hood are very even. It has been painted once.
Has a trunk lid now mounted.
I have removed rockers and longitudinals appear to be good except a couple of minor spots. Rear bumper appears good but will need to be rechromed.
Suspension all intact with axles. FL title.
The bad…..
Hell hole typically nasty
Firewall will need major work……as noise reduction pad did significant damage.
Lower firewall and floors will need to be replaced as well as rear section of trunk floor.
Front bumper trashed.
Other than that it should buff out nicely (IMG:style_emoticons/default/evilgrin.gif)
I will post several pics but have more if you have interest….pm number for texting if more pics.
Revised price to $1800…..
Pics to follow as compression apparently did not work.

It looks pretty decent to me. I have my own project to deal with right now, but I've seen much worse that were brought back to life. Besides, it's a 73, which is the best year in my opinion.

A couple of clarifications.
Pedrini wheels end in 00 so early. Wheel have not been machined from what I can see.
I have power washed under wheel wells….a few shots of undercoating residue removed so you can see original paint.Attached Image

Based on it sitting in high humidity environment for so long I pulled it to trash most of it.
Seats have funky inserts, back pad garbage. I wouldn’t use most of it if I were restoring so assuming most people would do the same.
Will post a couple of pics.

Is there anyone looking for a build or is this a part out.
