Neat little car but too rusty for me to want to save. (Floors and sills are gone, and then some) Clean title, or might be good for parts. All the glass, trim, lights are pretty much all there. Interior is there but toasted from sitting in an Arkansas field for who know how long. Drivetrain is present but engine condition unknown. Manual trans shifts in and out of gears. Car does roll

This belongs to a forum member who bought it from Patrick, me thinks.

Yeah that's me...

I am tired of it sitting around and it really is so far gone that it might need to be a parts donor or some sort of body shell on a tube frame project, which isn't something I really want.

I've already gotten messages asking if I'd ship trim pieces to Australia. There must be some hard to find parts

Fwiw, if one of you on here wants to try and save it or do something cool with the body I'd do a GRM discount - aka somebody please take it, hand me a couple bills, and spare me from the endless stream of "Is this available?" "Can I drive it home?"
 

If it's not gone locally or spoken for on here in a week or so, I'll probably start pulling parts to sell individually.

I can't buy them all.  I can try but I just can't.

Did this one go to a GRMer?

No, at least I don't think he's on the forum, but he'd fit in well. Younger guy who has a driving Datsun 310 (or 210?) and has a line on a wrecked Corona in Texas that will supposedly work as a sheet metal donor.

I'm slightly sad I didn't make an attempt at saving it, but it turned out to be way past the "patch floors and rockers, then resurrect mechanically" project that I was hoping for. Hopefully it will get saved, I have a feeling the two doors are getting pretty rare. I was getting messages from Canada and Australia asking if I'd ship trim and interior pieces.

Thanks for the response. We saw a 4 door at the Henry Ford today and my wife mentioned how much she liked it, haha.
