Those pics are cool in a historically perspective sort of way. Looks like a new at was involved in a bad wreck.

I'm sure it'll be parted out. I can't imagine anyone trying to put it back together. So, at some point in the future, it'll be sold off piece by piece, including the door, but, man oh man, that driver's door was folded almost in half.

Yeah it is in rough shape but I only need the lower skin as mine is in even worse shape.

Most everything on that car (except the roof) can be fixed. I have seen worse repaired by insurance companies. It is all in the value of the car.


The door assy would need a glass opening frame. It would be a joy for someone with a rusted out door skin.

R.I.P.

(P.S. someone like me could fix that, over a few years.)

I would start by making a convertible out of it. I would love to have it to repair for fun.

What a heart breaker, what insurance co? I am sure that you can buy it back for very little.
