The junk yard owner based the value of everything in the yard off of what things sell for restored. He thought this car was worth around $7000. I ended up trading him a mobile home that was given to me, for it. The guy that gave me the mobile home was going to junk it, and knew the junk yard owner wanted it for storage. The same guy helped me get our double cab and 62 Kombi out of the junkyard (he traded a diesel suburban for those two and a bay Westy which he wanted then sold me the buses) |

This was right after pushing it out of the tarp covered cocoon it was stored in. It was there for 2 years. Off the road since 1993.

Steering wheel is on the wrong side
