Looks like it sold for $41k, while it does "look" solid one has to wonder just how much filler is under some of that paint and without the original drive train this seems like a crazy #, I must be getting old.
Would be a great resto mod start I suppose but for $40k?
When you look at the shots of underneath, there isn't even a hint of any rust. Not even in the areas prone to rust, so I'd guess the panels are pretty darn solid, not counting for any sheetmetal damage that may be hid.
Resto mod? Why would anyone take a rust free, super rare performance car and make it a resto mod? That would be a really bad decision.
Personally, I don't care if someone paid $75k for it. If the car gets restored to its potential, then it's another rare example that's been saved. I don't know of many people who can make money off of any restoration, or resto mod. Unless you already have the majority of parts, it's just not gonna happen. Unless, like the 'reality' shows, they throw a bunch of repro parts on, give it a "20' paint job" and slap it together in a few weeks. At $41k however, I'm guessing whoever bought it is serious about restoring it.
