quite a mouthful, but here goes;
****
rusty floorpans-they will need to be replaced.
the bottom of both doors are rusty-either the doors will need replacing or buy bottom door skins,
battery area is rusty and needs replacing,
rust on door sills-need repair or patch panel
****
if you are a competent welder & have the equipment, figure $1,000 for replacement panels and supplies. i suggest keeping the doors and farming them out. (don't ask me how i know) new doors requires fitting those doors to your car. (read: pain... and time) the upside ? doing your own metal work saves $5-8K. if you've never done this before plan on 250 - 400 hours of work. this is not a process for the faint of heart.
*****
the front hood does not fit perfect
*****
red flag. you won't know what you have until you take a "killer" and get the paint and filler off the car. if you need a frame rack, add $$ to your estimate.
*****
the engine is not original-i believe it has a 356 C engine and comes with Weber 40's
*****
not an issue for a driver. a serial number would help.
*****
the good:
it comes with an extra 356 A engine in decent shape (ran before it was removed from a car)
*****
*might* be worth $1,000 if complete, original and a Super. less for the "Damen".
*****
interior is clean-seats are original and in new condition
chrome is in excellent shape
*****
seats have been redone.
*****
comes with a new carpet set
*****
good if it's Original German square weave. ($400) otherwise NBD.
*****
comes with metal to repair the battery area
*****
$50
it's the fabrication you have to do to get the *adjoining* panels ready to accept the new panel that takes the most time.
*****
the car currently runs and drives
*****
well... there's something to be said for that!
lots of detailed pictures would help.
*****
i'm thinking about buying it, welding in new sheet metal, painting it and selling it to make a few bucks for my upcoming wedding
*****
what year is the wedding ?
