Unless the "minor rust" is bad enough for parts to be falling off, that's a decent price. And despite being very ugly body lines, I'd rock it proudly!

Lotta personality for the price.

Personality is certainly one way to put it. Still, I'd drive it.

 Almost bought the 2-door version of this a few years ago. It had a floor shifter too. Oddly enough, it has pretty much the same wheelbase as Chrysler didn't want to spend the extra $$$$ to change the chassis. Makes it look unique!  wink

I could almost be tempted to go back on my promise to not build any more hot rods for myself promise. That this is cool. Yeah, it would have an LS.

A lot of 2dr cars were same wheelbase as their 4dr brothers. Not uncommon.

My parents had a 1960 Valiant that I may have modified a little. It was almost perfectly balanced and handled well enough to embarrass some sports cars. That motor would pull to 7,000 rpms a spin the tires shifting to 2nd with the push button trans. As Hungary would say, Good Times!

I keep coming back to this thread. That car has unimaginable pull.

At last I see where the ugliness of the 03 Accent coupe got its inspiration.
