Message	it spent the vast majority of its years in a desert climate, rust has gotten the best of it. The one you're considering looks like crap already, IMO. Very good to excellent quality first generation Z cars can be had for 30 to $.50 on the dollar compared to what you'd spend restoring that one. Unless you're an expert body and paint guy and DIY, but do you want to bother? Then there is the mechanical side of your find. ????? Run. Don't look back. Search for one in great shape. You'll save a ton of time and a small fortune. That's just my two cents. Chance favors the informed
