It looks like if you tip it over, it might float. 
Probably at least $100 worth of scrap iron in it. |

Reminds me of a "free puppy."
Just like a free puppy it will be anything but free, and just like a free puppy it will end up being a great addition to the household. |

Car looks like it was well built for its time. Racing belts , fire wall between driver and tank, dual rear shocks. Here in Colorado it would go for 500-1000 bucks easy. Goodluck and let us know if you get it  |

Looks like a very old Chenowth. If it is there will be a tag welded on the bottom of the drivers side around the seat area

| Judging from the body, I'd say it's an old Berrien 902. Heavily modified for off-road racing. For a $100 bucks, snap it up. It's worth it. |
