I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Interior is in better shape than the exterior. I put the woodgrain bezels in it recently, I've also cleaned them since this pic was taken, lol

Looks like a decent car. For 700 it's a steal. Is it an elan?

No, just a moderatly loaded up base. The 2 tone paint, and wing windows made me think it was an elan too at first.

Can you post pics of the lower parts of doors, behind rear wheels, etc?  The normal rust spots?  I'm about 3 hours away.
