I say, if you're just going to use it as a parts car, don't buy it. Let someone else have who'll save it.

Share the wealth.
Or, clean it up and sell at a profit.

Dont tear it apart find one that is already beyond repair or is at the point of part out. This one looks nice and could be low mileage!

Why was it parked? If the car is complete and just needs some minor repairs, then leave it for someone to restore or resto mod. Taking a complete car and turning it into a parts car is a waste of another thirdgen.

Re: Nice Barn Find - Should i buy?
If this car is complete as it is, why not just buy it and sell your car that your working on now? At least let someone else get it, no reason to rip apart a good car.

Re: Nice Barn Find - Should i buy?
RIGHT SAID!!!!! on the one hand if you part it out there goes another 3rd gen to waste(that riteously sucks) on the other hand it just makes the ones that are left that much more valuable

Re: Nice Barn Find - Should i buy?
Ok i passed on it! It would need a complete resto. Doors have rust holes the size of softballs, the top is garbage, the interior was living quarters for mice for 9 years, 140,000 + miles, etc, etc, etc.
