Provided you have a straight body and are prepared for the long haul, youll have a delightful vehicle when you get done with it. Front suspension is most likely gonna be all jiggly so all bushings will need replacement. You should haggle on that price a bit, given the condition of the interior. I just got done hammering out all the issues with my suspension and have restored that precise handling these cars are known for, definitely worth the effort.

If this car was in the flood, I would be very leary of it. It probably needed quite a lot of TLC before. It may well be beyond help at this point. Keep looking, you will be rewarded with a solid six eventually. Its not uncommon to look at sixes for a couple of years before then ONE.
