"Vintage" meaning it was built 15-20 years ago as a drag car, but this could be a TON of fun with some work to make it a little more streetable.

Being a unibody car, having all the inner fender structure gone is a big concern for the structural integrity of the front end. I see no cage tubing going forward to support that.

This car needs a LOT of work to ever bring it back to a nice cruiser. The missing instrument panel isn't attractive.

Totally agree, the interior is a mess for sure. Would be an intriguing car for say $7500.

Exactly, that would be reasonable price to start rebuilding from.

Wow, when's the last time you saw Erson valve covers? I remember that was the "Super Shops" badge back in the early 90's. :D

Car would present better with the roll bar painted flat black.
