I'm not parting this car out, it is otherwise in very nice condition. It will need some TLC before I could think about driving it. I'm still thinking that selling it with some of the spare bodywork and D-Jet components from the 71E is my best bet. Hard to give up though...

I looked into the replacement bodywork over the weekend and the cost of a full replacement spar is less than $90.00. Same for the floorpan. The only really pricey bits are the rocker assemblies, runnning over $250 per kit. ...BUT with my 71E now 50% sawed up, I can say with confidence that the matching spar and cross members are in very good salvageable condition.
