I agree with getting it checked out by a good mechanic. It could be almost road ready or a complete nightmare. If you’re not really looking for a hot rod, the 5k should get you a good running unmolested stocker which I believe will be more reliable, less expensive and more fun in the long run.
Good project, good advice from the gang. You asked about rubber early on. Might try Steele rubber company. Find them on line and they will send you a listing of all the rubber they carry for your car. I sure agree with trying to bring the six back to life. They’re tough engines. Get it running, then upgrade as you learn.
I'm about a week late to the party but I'll jump in. Sell it as a complete car. Sold and gone. Parting it out would take all your time and many busted knuckles. Parts of it would be around for years. Good project for someone who can do the work themselves. I'd take a look if I were closer but, realistically, from the photos, not running, 4 doors, rusty floor, it's about a $500 car.
