    i bought this car last october with intent to sell it and make some money.after 2 different deals fell through i thought i should just keep it.it is a 72 with only surface rust on the roof.the floors,trunk,and body are rust free.6 cyl 3speed.i think it will be a fun car to build

    that looks really nice. What engine does it have? Is it original manual tranny? Looks like you could fix it up with very little work and either turn around and sell it or keep it.
