Exactly. They don't come up for sale locally very often and have potential to hold their value.

If you want it all OEM spec it will cost quite a bit.

OEM fenders, bumper, head lights, hood, A badges etc
Paint and body work
OEM seats (at least black is relatively easy to find), steering wheel
OEM wheels / tires / center caps
OEM brakes
OEM intake, exhaust etc
Engine rebuild

Who knows what else. Prob 15k to restore. Maybe more?
