Great way to look at it! I know I've easily gotten my money's worth in just parts alone on this thing. Hoping to keep it from a parts rig though, full verts are becoming rare enough as it is. The interior isn't *too* bad, but it definitely is packed full of crap and needs to be cleaned out. I'll be having it picked up Sunday or Monday.

Thanks. From what I've (barely) seen of it so far, the rust isn't bad, it looks more like a little bit of body damage along the lower edges than anything. I'm not planning on restoring it, but I would eventually like to get it back into driveable condition again without dumping a whole lot into it. It might be a good rig to practice installing patch panels on, and get it back to decent shape. But yeah, for $100? Can't lose no matter what I do.
