I think it needs alot of work. Its quite far from a amateur project. It is going to require intermediate to professional work on it. However if your skills are up to par I say go for it. Everyone needs a project/hobby.

Yes, you are.

And now, you must know if it is worth for you.
(It probably will be some work on it, but could be a lot of fun also.)

How hard can it be we are talking about a 2-stroker car from the sixties :) and the car is running and the engine is working fine , it’s a 2-stroker so how much can breakdown :) and if it breaks down a can go to the scrap yard and buy a engine for 50 euro :D

Why??? Why do you want it?

Looks like trouble, but it's cheap trouble, I'd say go for it if you've got the expendable income.

There is nothing bad in having a dream and making it true. It doesnt matter how much time it costs. If you think you can do it, just go for it :)

Malin, just think, what will you do with this car?
I would only buy it for sentimental reasons, to keep it in my garage, like an exhibition.
You don't wan't to use a 40 year old two stroker as a daily car....

I think that'd be a really cool city car. But as said before, it'd take alot of work. It'd be a cool and quirky car for the price though. You should buy it and try to make it a little bit better. If you can't, just sell it. You won't lose much money and it'll be a fun little car to drive around in.
