    that is really cool, I would love to have it... but for 10k in that condition. Since when is rust gold? 10k partially restored would be understandable with engine too.

    And that, boys and girls, is from whence "rat rods" come. Basically sound body, buff the rust up a bit to knock the rough edges off (converting the "rust" to "patina"), put in a big block and auto tran of some kind, coupla funky lawn chairs with Mexican blankets inside, and you're done. Well, not quite, but you get the picture. That thing would be prohibitively expensive to "put right", but would be a rat rod for a very few thou.

    That said, its still priced at least twice what its worth, even for what I've described.
