Check the rear shock towers in the trunk real well. A '76 normal 2002 is definitely not cost-effective to do a full, bare metal, rotisserie-style resto on, but once again, if it is truly dry and straight/no bondo it is worth painting and maybe replacing the interior on. You'd have a real nice driver 2002 and they're not making them anymore.

They're a lot like VW Beetles in the sense that they were not exotic, (at all), were extremely popular and consequently sold very well so they're not rare. But they have a strong following. Hope that made sense.

They were made better than $100k cars are today, so a dry one could last another 32 years.
