1600 Type 3 pancake engine included, but has been sitting in my garage for 6+ years

6years means it's probably rusted shut. Will need a total rebuild- $300 if you do the work yourself

Floors are there but swisscheesed

major work (ask Jack)

I do not have a title, but with cars this old, they're pretty easy to get.

Bull spit. I've titled a lost titled car here in NJ. It will take 3-4 months and cost you a few hundred.

This is a project

No. This is a nightmare. I think he needs to take the 1 off of the price of $1200

having this experience, I should use it to benefit others.

If you trip over a messy rug, do you leave it there for someone else to experience it or do you fix the rug?
