It's still for sale. I was going to go look at it but the owner was out of town for a while. There was also some questions as to whether he could get the title. It sounds like he might, but only if someone is serious about it.

The car is a rolling shell. It doesn't even have a dash.

It looks really solid though.
For $1,500, that car is definitely savable. There have been several members who have started with a car in worse shape than this one apparently is in. But keep in mind that restorations are expensive, and chances are high that you would end up having more cash tied up in the car than it would be worth on the market. I'm upside down on my CHP, but I'm ok with that.

Obviously, you need to watch out for rust. Also see if the Buck Tags are present, if the original VIN sticker is still on the driver's door, and if the CHP Unit Number is still written with a paint pen near the driver's door latch. As you know, having as much agency-specific information as possible is a HUGE plus.
