i would at least grab whats left of the emblem "acuda" and hang it on the wall in the shop and then at least close the windows.that car might be saveable depending on the frame rot

You should grab the rocker arms off of it. 273 forged adjustables.  :2thumbs:

i know nothing about these cars, im a vw guy my self, i jus like to see old cars go to people that respect them, to do what ever, restore them or use them for parts. i hate to jus see them sitting and rotting. what would you say this cars worth the way it is? im sure it has plenty of rust.

Well, if is going to rot away, I am sure there are some engine brackets, dash parts and the radio that someone will want.

Yep. If the floors OK it would be a great project. Take the Combi Van as well  :)

Man that brings back some good memories of my cars from the past.  I hope someone does restore it.  Hate to see any car go to waist.  Gordon

That car has alot of good parts on it.  Hood looks to be dent free as well as the roof.  Lots of stainless, interior parts, rear quareters don't look to be totally rotted away either.  All the glass is there also. 
  What is that a 65 or a 66?
  Couldn't tell you a value on the car. I havn't followed those years of cuda's on the market.

It looks like a 66 with the look of the dash.  I am not sure what it would be worth either.  :2cents:

Could be.  Can you tell me what the difference was between 64 and 65?  I know what it is just to see if anyone else knows here.  I have not had a 64 for a long time now.   :stirpot: :poopoke:
