I agree with Mike, it looks worse than it is, and if the engine and tranny 
aren't trashed, it is not too hard to make it respectable.  You need a buddy 
with a late model in better shape, and then you can see how to put it right.

Figure another $2K to get it very presentable, another $6K if you want to get 
it almost perfect (it isn't worth it).  If there are foreign junkyards near 
you, they are a good source of buts and pieces/

There really isn't mush rust, and POR 15 (recent thread) should help get the 
rust that there is stopped, need rubber flooring and then a set of carpets, 
probably a dashcap, you can make side panels yourself out of masonite, but 
you need someone to give advise and samples.
