I'd take it..even though it's from the fugly years..

Don't get me wrong,I've got a 79 4wd but I dont care about it half as much as my 67-72s,even the non running ones

It does run,drive,and serve it's purpose though.
There is over $400 in parts there,but it may turn up needing more than just a motor.I think with a reman 350 from a local auto parts store in it,it would be a good winter beater although it doesnt look that bad from the pictures.Even if you put a reman motor in it,drove it for the winter and resold it,you would probably get over $2000-$3000 for it,IMO.
