Like I said, check the VIN, if it's special (hemi, street wedge, you know the drill) grab it and peddle it to someone with deep pockets. Put that money towards something closer to your "ideal".
Is there a title? Do you want a high school Bondo bomb or a solid street cruiser? It's been sitting open for a long time, no windshield or trunk, so how are the floors, trunk pan and frame rails? Even if the frame is solid, it took a pretty good punch to the front... how tweeked is it? Needs at least the right quarter and a lower patch on the left, and don't forget the dropoffs and wheelhouses- the outside doesn't get to that point without taking a toll on the inner structures. Two fenders, both bumpers and brackets, grille, quarter extensions and taillights, trunk and trim. Windshield and gaskets, full interior- there's no seats/frames, nothin'. That almost gets you to a roller.
Full braking system, fuel tank/filler/lines, front to rear wiring. Not even counting all the little stuff that adds up in a hurry: sanding/grinding discs, welding rod, primers, seam sealers, weatherstripping, hardware, etc. And that'll just
get you to the point of being able to think about the driveline... or paint.
My point is; this thing is missing a LOT of hard to find/one year only stuff, and you are looking at potentially spending years tracking it all down. And paying for it. You have to ask yourself: Am I building this to have fun with, or will I be lucky to see my grandchildren have fun with it?
Start making a list and pricing stuff to get it to the level you want, then take a step back and ask yourself if you're really ready and willing to make the time/money commitment that realistically will be required. Remember, life will rear it's ugly head along the way, too. I'm not trying to be a downer on your dream, just warning you to prepare yourself for this one. Good luck whatever you decide.
