Pulled the bumpers and visors.  Gonna go back and grab the seats and a few other pieces.

I got excited when I saw the floor mats, but they were in bad shape.

If it has a good pair of electric-window door panels, I could sure use those!!

I see a window crank sitting on the roof in the second picture, so it doesn't look promising.

Side note, it appears to have at least one rally wheel on it.

The window crank was an extra from the glovebox.  But, yeah, not power.  It has the full set of rims.  I'm heading back tomorrow, but I don't know if I'll be able to get the set-- the car's wedged on another.

Believe it or not, those floor mats will clean up.   A good carpet shampoo, brush, and a high pressure nozzle on your garden hose will make them look like new!   If you can get them for a couple dollars or less, it would be worth the effort.

And I've had real good luck using Super Clean and a soft scrub brush on vinyl and rubber and even fabric.   Made the interior in my 200K-mile wagon look like brand new.

Does it have a carb hooked up?

Don't let the looks of those mats scare ya. I've seen a lot worse and with a little effort they can be made to look very nice.Looks like a good scrubbing and some vinyl paint they should be good to go.In fact the entire car didn't look to bad. Should give up some really nice parts or even a restore effort unless the sub frame is gone.

Those mats are all rotted.  How would you fix the rubber parts?

I did find a set of front mats in a wagon.  They're in good shape.  I also got my speaker grills and some misc engine parts.
Let me know if anyone needs any wagon parts.
