The wheels alone, Keizer 13 x 6 in the front, 13 x 8 in the back, are probably worth a few bucks.  Well, once cleaned up and polished.  And the rear spring, lowering block and welded diff are worth having, at least to someone.

Pugs and I put a LOT of effort into building that car, it deserves better than what I can give it.  I am pretty sure I will not get around to getting it going again in my remaining years.
