Title says "Restoration"

Not.

Fifty Bucks is more than a nice one is worth. I know, I've purchased them.
Even glass bead, how much pitting and filler needed?
Even the frame. Stored next to a lead-acid battery charging station.

Tear down, bead blast, repair, paint, buy decals, and you have a $15 car when you're done.

Plus 15 to ship.

For parts, $5, maybe. Pitch the tank, it’s rusted litho junk.

It's a flat no even at $5 unless you just want some trucks to put on an old Westbrook Reefer car :) :twisted:
