I'd be interested in seeing the underneath of the car.  Pretty clearly this 
would be a great car to start with.  Clean engine.  Coil has been replaced.  
Good rocker cover.  Cockpit clean.  Engine bay doesn't look repainted recently, 
yet shows no rust.  Exhaust manifold shows no scaling, maybe painted.  Yellow 
fan conversion (or was that original with 4's?).  Bumpers straight.  Paint and 
chrome look okay from the distance of the pictures.  Wire wheels don't show the 
rust of a car driven in winter.  

Depending on the reserve, and depending on the mileage of the engine, it could 
be a good acquisition.

If I were to take on another project after I finish building a garage this 
year, it would be a four like this...or, ironically, worse but cheaper going in 
so I could do it all from scratch like I did the 3.
