carfreak: the car you posted sure does look like a project. From those photos, the body looks basically good, aside from the dented passenger door. I do see lots of trim missing. Chrome and rubber. and of course that roof is trashed.
Have you gotten to see the interior? or the frame? If they are in good shape, and the engine can be made to run, at least by Minnesota standards, it might pass. Although I sure don't have the connections to do the kind of work it requires, you might.
Otherwise, that car Leo posted, if it is still for sale, is a beauty. I saw it in person a few years back, and I know it needs a good home.
