A little rust in the hell hole?? Realy? I looked at that one and thought the rust was just about ready to over take the hole rig. Im not beeing a smart ass here, is that realy called not bad?
It did have a new starter and the single carb setup.

You didnt dig into it idea.gif
The PO didnt flinch as I ripped the remnants of the batter tray outta the way & proceeded to stab the hole with a screwdriver happy11.gif
Not a bad car cheer.gif ive looked over WAY worse for WAY more $$ asked.
Repaint of original Irish(?) green. No rot from below.
Trunk floor is gonna need replacing, the HE's had completely rotted away, and some sail rust at the union above each dr. handle scallop.
Nice score Tim. Sort out its issues, Toss the carb in the Sound, swap your best bits onto it & give the boy the 70!

Have you checked the fuses for the Head lights? If the lights come
on but don't come up, could be fuse.

I did see your car.I was the first guy to look at it. I offered 750. if i could add a battery to see if anything worked.

On the plus you did et a 2.0 and the center gadge package. I would be intrested in seeing the baja. That would be cool.
