It's spoken for, the only stipulation is that I move it by spring. I'll be selling a couple cars to make space for it. I've already bought a used instrument cluster and interior window trim pieces for the doors. I'll have to look into door panels as it seems the passenger side has a door panel but the driver's lacks it.

There is rust in the lower firewall and the footwell step. Not really concerned as of yet. All body concerns will be withheld until I get it out of the corner and onto a lift.

As luck would have it, all I have to pay for rustoration is food, beverages and the occasional assistance in bead rolling. I'll try my hand on what wont be seen, and let the pro do his work on making the rest of the rig pretty again.
