Its not too bad. It was a VA car its whole life so rust is a minimum. The floors are pretty solid. It was repainted the original color at some point. While not a great paint job, it could be worse. The drivers seat is torn up and I am looking for a matching replacement which is proving to be a challenge. I am hoping I can get the darn thing running this coming weekend! I think I am going to have to pull/push start it the first time as I suspect the rings are gunked up from cranking it and the compression is low as a result. Also the oil was kind of sludgly under the valve cover. With my help, it should run again. It sat because either the glow plug relay failed (I repaired it by cleaning it and soldering some connections in it) or because of a bad batch of fuel/bio (original fuel system was trash).
