This car is ruined. "Sitting for many years waiting to be restored." Yeah, my ass has been sitting for many years to be restored too.

10k for a car with a bent frame and missing glass is insane. It does look cool tho, I'd love to get it drivable and drive it as is. Fixing the frame would be on hell of a difficult/expensive job though.

Looks like a good candidate for a restomod.

Holy fuck that thing is screwed up. Who in the right mind would spend $10k on a car with a bent frame when they can buy a nice example for a little more? Massive CP.

It's a unibody/platform frame. There isn't any fixing that.

Cars like this do not get rebuilt. If it's a Ferrari 250 GTO that some rich guy puts into a wall on a track day, it's getting rebuilt. If it's an early Shelby Mustang, it's getting rebuilt. If it's one of those early Hertz Mustangs, it's probably getting rebuilt. But a garden variety Mustang fastback isn't special enough to warrant the huge amount of work (and cash outlay) required. There's a reason it's still in its present condition.

At first, I was skeptical about the car. But that thing is really pretty much worthless in it's current condition.

Modern looking universal radiator hose, new spark plug wires, that thing hasn't been waiting that long....Looks like of like it hit a tree, or was hit by a motorcycle. That's some weird damage....

Not to mention the rust, and I have my doubts that the motor is original to the car (the only remote reason to bother looking at it).

Part that thing out. About all it's worth anymore. Not even a manual...

You might be able to part it out for a couple dozen dollars.

You can straighten a unibody on a jig, but it's difficult work and usually creates other damage that has to be repaired too.
