To resurrect that would only be out of pure love as the cost could never be recouped and there would be many better alternatives available as a starting point.
It would be interesting to see the condition of the interior and a few other details to see if it would make a cheap parts car. |

I'm amazed they are asking as much as $850 for a rolling chunk of rust.

We need a vehicle equivalent to the RSPCA for cruelty to Cars.

I would pay $850 for that.
Make a good parts car for mine. Most of the LTD specific stuff looks intact. V8 is a bonus too. Sent from my SM-N915G using Tapatalk

For parts, maybe. Forget about restoring that though. It's gone. Sadly.

I wouldn't be looking foward to reboring the block.
With that amount of visible rust, I doubt the car was ever looked after properly. |
