Parting out 88 Thunderbird LX

My parents have decided to retire this tired old Bird. If you need anything off of it, let me know.
I only plan on keeping it a month or so, then its going to the s pile.

Does the thing run? Is it just really rusty? I wonder if it would make it back to Chicago under it's own power.....

Is it driveable or is it a case of "too rusty to drive"?
