Got to agree with Judson, You are Buying a hobby.

 

From what you have said you are looking at a Very Good stater car to restore or refinish.  From my experence 73-JH  # 13218. You will need to give the car a lot of TLC.  Just get it on the road one time and you will be SOLD.

You can expect to spend anywhere from $ 2000 to 5000.00 depending on how far you want to take it. But remember they say there were abour 13,000 built (all years) and less then 1,600 still on the road.

I stole mine when I bought it 1 1/2 years ago for $ 3,500.00 and the condition was close to yours (Few less miles). As of right now I have put an additional 1800.00 into it and all that is remaining is a planned repaint and about $400.00 in Mech. work

Best of luck and Merry Christmas.
