Totally original -except for the rust - taken off the road in 1981 and left to fester under pine trees - The engine turns over but I haven't tried starting it ..... I thought I might try resurrecting it but its just too far gone - I real shame

why is it too far gone ? from the photo's it dosnt look too bad - but then again things in the flesh always look worse than a photo. If it was in Perth i'd be happy to be the custodian of such a car.

I have one like this (possibly worse). It wouldn't be economically viable to rebuild, so unless it had sentimental value, you'd be tearing up money. It's unfortunately only useable as a parts car.

if its a full nut/bolt/respray re-build I can see your point. I must say i'm quite into keeping the car body original looking. My version of a restoration on a car like this would be to make it safe to drive then just roll in it as is..............i'm always intrigued by the non restored cars. RatRod Capri :-)
