If anyone buys this for the challenge (I would but it's too far) I have a brand new 4 litre in the crate, New old stock, would be great in this car lol

I formally nominate you for an understatement of the year award!

No clue on a value, but rust repair would cost most (or more) of it!

I do love oddball stuff, and would rock that, with 90% less rot! Cool car.

Our forum-mates on the Junk Connoisseurs podcast covered this model in a previous episode. They said something about rust prevention being somewhat absent on these things, largely due to a factory error.

A parody of any one of those liveries would be Lemons gold!

Incredibly cool, but that car in NY with that much visible rust suggests to me that a stiff breeze is likely to crumple what remains.
