I found the original sales receipt. My father bought the car for $4300 in 1990 with 173,000 approx. miles on the car. Apparantly, when he bought it, it mainly needed some carburetor work. After sitting for 20 years, I am not sure how much more work it would take now to get running.
I searched for rust, and I could not find any issues, but I did not get under the chassis. Overall, the car looks to be in pretty good shape with a clean body. Obviously, the engine will need work.
I think this would best work for someone in the SO CAl area who could get a good look at the car, but I am willing to speak with anyone interested.
Here is a link to the photobucket album.

I hope it opens up correctly. You will notice, there is also a Mini Cooper in the album that I am trying to sell as well. It needs more work, but overall, it still looks to be in decent shape for a project car. I would be willing to accept a package deal. If the link does not open, I will email the album to anyone interested. The car is located in Temple City near pasadena.
I am willing to entertain any reasonable offers. I have not decided on a set price yet, nut I have an idea of value.
Please email me at [email protected] with any questions.
thank you,
Chris
