Is there a single part -- ANY PART -- that you'd actually want off this trashed vehicle?

I dunno--I'm a sucker for cars like this. "Needs Work" calls my name. I don't even have a garage (yes, the one I am working on is out in the driveway {half on the lawn}). Give me a car with a running engine (OK, so the one I have wasn't running--IT IS NOW!!), needs a BUNCH of minor stuff done, and I'll be happy as a project car.

Its a five speed! And if its a 86.5 - I want the brakes as well!
If I could I would ...........
Anyone want to go in a "Parts" car. I just want the entire five speed assembly - fron to back
You guys can have the rest!

Set of sheepskins, cut some new rugs out of that **** we took out of mom's trailer last year, a little Armor-All on the insides and the tires, a quick wipe with Turtle-Wax-- We have a Wilhoit candidate.
I'll bet the distortion on the front end could be pulled out with a come-along and a dent puller.
All this negativity!

I'd be more interested in what looks like a Triumph TR3 back there.

I'd be more interested in the red Plymouth Fury in the background, if it has a 413 Wedge cross-ram.... or in the red Porsche in the first pic. Either is probably worth several times the current high bid on the shark...

That's a woman in the background??? I gotta get a new pair of glasses.
Probably a good project car for someone so inclined at less than 1000, probably a big disappointment to someone at the current price.
