If you're parting out, are the seat belts available?

Man, the tires on that car are so flat it looks like she's sinking into the desert. Mother Nature is reclaiming what's rightfully hers.

Looks like a 98 by the grille.

I always save the ship's wheel and the binnacle, especially if solid brass. Oooh, and also the engine room telegraph.

Im sure the belts are still in it but probably stiff as can be, I will check when I go to pull it out

Definitely a 98, just look at the quarters.

Can you post some more pictures of the interior and around the car? I'm sure you'll be able to sell parts from it if you show and tell what's good on the car. What color is the interior?

1971 Olds 98 G heads will have small valves in them. Not rare & not overly desirable but they flow the same as E & Ga heads. Last pair of G heads I sold I got $300 for the pair but they were large valve heads.
