While I agree with RUSH on the rough part, it appears relatively complete and the PS/AC options are 'rare' enough to possibly negotiate on the deal.......because there aren't many Pigs that are 'worth' the potential thousands of dollars required to wage war on the rust they're so prone to.

Interior isn't trashed, long bodied ASCO's, bumpers look pretty good, grill and surrounds look good, doesn't appear to have been beaten.

It's probably consumed with rot in rockers, pillars, gutter and the front fenders appear sculpted, but if a driver not a restoration, not a bad looking Pig, albeit $4-5k might warm the fuzzy feeling.

I'd think that Pig PS gearbox and pedestal is worth north of $1k, even a rebuild-able core, and the AC might be similarly priced with the harness intact.

No guarantees when it comes to Pigs, EXCEPT, they're all rusty and gonna cost exponentially more to correct than worth......but I still love 'em and there are worse ways to piss money away.
 
interesting on the long body hubs, I would have thought they would be the later version being a 79.
