Default Is a 2003 Mach1 rolling shell worth $1500?

Hey everyone I was wondering if this 03' Mach1 rolling chassis is worth $1500. There is no glass, no doors, a missmatched fender, no hood, no bumpers, some trim missing on the pass side.

The pictures say it all.




You can see in this one that the core support and bumper bar are slightly bent.




This is the only other damage on the whole car.







He says he has the guage cluster 5spd ECU and both air bags. But thats it for interior, there is nothing else.

yea looks like a lot of work but but its already got a assload of weight reduction lol. if you get a engine and tranny lexan windowns and paint youll have a sweet drag set up. I see this costing ALOT though.

now now.....it DOES have a front window.....

if it didnt, I'd say it wouldnt be worth the cost ofdroppin in thetranny/engine/interior/drivetrain/suspension/computer/ingnition/body parts.....

but with the windsheild intact? I say SCORE!

At least it has subframe connectors. If that is stock rear end, it has 3.55 gears. And like they said, weight reduction!

A lot of work, and not sure about making a car cheaper than just buying a Mach 1. This would be a fun project car though. Again, lots of work, but nice clean slate.

Heh, If I had the money to blow, I would love to get my hands on something like that. Just like they said...A nice drag project. It wouldnt be getting a 4.6 though if it were mine
