About the only good news here is the 350 V8 with a four barrel. As noted in the Examiner article, this ’76 model could be had with a 110 HP V6. That’s not a lot of power in this beast. The 350 would at least provide some low-end torque. So, that’s the engine. Everything else here is in a dire state. Is it even remotely worth saving? Maybe if the price was $500…

$2,625(on sale!!), was priced at $3,500. Offers considered.
How, exactly, does this level of surface rust get to a car? Clearly, the front finisher was plastic of some sort.
Spoiler (urethane?) is there and stainless b-pillar trim remains fairly stainless. Has the rust worm gotten through though lower quarters?
Graphics are all there. Maybe this can just be clear coated and tauted as a ‘rat rod’.
Interior shows a lot of wear. Groovy shifter is a nice touch.
Neglect continues under the hood with surface rust essentially everywhere.
