I think it's priced about twice its value - maybe closer to $3K.

Man I feel for you folks that deal with that kind of rust. Yikes 😬 Look at the rust you Can see. Holy crap that rear bumper and deck lid. I can't even imagine diving deeper. A ragtop that is that rusted? Whew. Dash has been cut for a din size stereo. Huge project. Pro street time I guess.

Advertised in Virginia w/ a Florida (Marion County) license plate. Most likely dragged out of a salt water swamp/marsh land. Probably no floor pans survived and every weld joint on the chassis/frame has disintegrated. $1K tops.

I;ve seen a lot of rusty PA cars but have never seen the core support top rusted like that on the passenger side so you could see the horn!

I thought the same thing. That is crazy rust to eat thru that.

I would call this a 10 footer. You could stand 10 feet away and still hear this thing rusting. Sad.

Every metal part of the vehicle is rotted through. At that point, the frame is rotted and not salvageable. Like someone mentioned, this vehicle was probably under water at some point. The vehicle is destined for the car crusher. Only worth is someone buying the VIN tag.
