Oh, I wasn't suggesting for the seller to part the
car out at all.

My thinking is that IF I'm going to build a V8 AMC
car, do I want to buy a 232-powered, basic Hornet
hatchback and try to find the stuff needed to make
it what I want separately, paying top buck for each
piece...or would I rather start with a factory V8
car with significant optional equipment? Once you
secure this V8 car, if it's too much a mess to fix
up within your budget, THEN you find the rot-free
232 car and move all the good stuff over. Heck, you
can even tag and title the 232 as the 304 car if
you wish....essentially a 're-body'.

In this regard, it's $1000 well spent. :)

I would think most old cars are worth more in parts then they are whole unless they have been restored. Most people would just
rather sale them whole then fool with parting them out. That is a lot of trouble.
