    Yeah, it was on Ebay a couple weeks ago, and there's a thread on it on about page 4 of this board, called Convertible on Ebay. They wanted an opening bid of $2,000 then, now down to $1,000.

    Definitely not a "lead sled"- all the lead got melted off in the fire! :woohoo:

    Consensus was that this car is just too far gone. . . :(

    In the side view it looks like the unibody frame is bent. Looks like the driver's door overlaps the 1/4 panel by about 1 1/2". Parts car at best.
