I am not sure how much this would be worth, so I thought I would ask the people that know. I don't have pictures yet but soon will, when I uncover it. It is a 1973 orange thing. I have the entire body and suspension. I dragged it with the tow bar home. I saved it from the crusher basically. I don't have a title for it. The body is in ok condition, very little rust except drivers rocker has small part rusted through. The nose is a little pushed in but not mangled. The floors are solid but repaired with riveted sheetmetal. The transmission is in it and appears to be in good shape. The fenders are off of it but in good condition and the windsheild is in good condition. I also have the doors in good condition. The seats are all there but not the best recover job.

I was going to restore it but have too many other projects currently. I wouldn't tow it far as the ball joints are knocked out of where they belong and held on by the nut. Like I said it could be quickly and fairly inexpensive to get back driveable. I don't have a top or the supports for one, but do have side curtains.

I am really just looking for a quick sale so give me prices that would be really reasonable. I would really like to see this go to someone that cares or needs to get another thing on the road.

sorry,.but this sounds too much like fishing for a sale.
look in the classifieds, look at ones like yours and pick a price you are happy with.
DONE
