If it is really and truly all original and unrestored, probably the best thing you could do is buy it and just clean, clean, clean and detail it, then flip it. Once you start doing floors and quarters and paint, where do you stop? If the car had good documentation and owner history, and you got it for free and did a full blown, 100 pt. resto on it you'd be doing good just to recoup your costs.

I'd say if you can buy it for $10K and clean it up to sell, you'll make a few $$$.

I sure appreciate the info - I can get it bought for 6 - so that leaves me some room.

Ok - I got the car bought - it needs quarters - story is they had some bondo put in about 20 years ago - held up ok, but needs to be fixed, needs floor, trunk floor, rockers, front fenders are pretty good but need some fixing. Rear window area is real solid - some pin holes on roof by front windshield? Car has numbers matching JE block runs great with new hooker headers, 2 1/2 exhaust, Holley Carb.
If you know anyone looking let me know - everything is there, pretty much unmolested.
