I've seem heap better for sale but not that cheap. WOuld clean up OK, I reckon fix rust ald leave it how it looks, but put an injected 5.0L or similar eg a 454 or 350 or whatever takes your fancy. Even a 308 and Trimatic.

I can confirm that:

Disc brakes are not original. This car had drums.
Engine is not original, original was a QE low comp engine.
Power steering is not original.

Something odd about that floor shift hole too. Maybe it was originally a 3-sp column shifter manual.

It was an M15 3spd originally. Only mechanical option was the low compression 173.
