Looks fairly stuffed, but as a parts car there would be a bit of value in it!

Looks fine to me.

Inside needs a bit of a tidy up and some paint and panels and it would be a mint ride.

You would be able to make some cash of that thing thats for sure. sucks its in NSW:P

Take a look at the safety features

Anti-Lock Brakes, Back Seat Safety Belts, Electronic Stability Program (ESP), Passenger Airbag, Safety Belt Pretensioners
