Thoughts?

There's a big difference between doing the necessary stuff and driving it and restoring it. If restoring is your goal you don't want to put the car on the track. If you still insist on restoring it you need to be able to do all the work yourself. Otherwise you could easily spend 10-12, maybe 20K turning this car into a nice 8-10K car.
This car has been for sale for 6 weeks. If it's such a deal how come it's still for sale? Buying this car now and letting it sit for a year or longer doesn't make a lot of sense.
Figure out what your goals are before jumping on this one.
