As Ngoma quite rightfully pointed out it really does depend on your aspirations.
I got a deal similar to this last year here in the UK, a garage stored car since the late 90's 760 Turbo Diesel. Although I had a bit of welding to do on the sills it was a great little project that I got up and running in no time. these really are fantastic cars and I'd hate to see another go to the scrapper if you don't want to put the time into get her going again.
Ngoma is also right in the fact that these cars require a fair bit of mechanical skill, understanding of the components and the special tools required. Once you get used to that I find them a joy to work with.
On the flip side if you don't feel your up to the challenge there is a large number of American members on this forum, so selling it on here to someone who would want to take it on might be a good idea.

Hope this helps
Tristan
