[Drew Gregg]

The metallic red and rust make this an industrial-strength project.

Out of curiosity, what is “catawiki”? Am I the only one to think it seems strange to sell a relatively expensive vintage car on a little known web site…

It's a European sales site and perhaps little known here, but it's been around since 2008. https://www.catawiki.com/en/help/about

Regarding this car: pretty strong bids on such a roached example. Looks like there's rust everywhere.

Ah, my bad. For some reason I thought this sale was in the US.

The visible rust alone is scary, scary.

FWIW, I’ve dealt with this seller and personally met him (Emanuele B. of Net Classic) for several classic importations and can highly recommend him.

Having had a chance to inspect the car from approx 6000 miles I see a LOT of rust. But the seller seems quite up front about it. It's the different coloured engine bay that looks to be hiding lots of bondo that would scare me. Time and money could fix the rest - if somebody were game enough. But if the inner fenders are gone then that's serious work. Rust stained carpet as also a sign things aren't well underneath.
You'd have to think with bidding going as it is people aren't viewing it as a parts car?
