Not enough left of the floor pan to support the body from folding in half. No roof to hold it together.
If the original engine is gone, like Kurt said, it's junk. Just give it a respectful ending and crush what is left. I don't agree that it should be kept as is and displayed. For what purpose ? To prove there are people who will hold onto a vehicle until there is nothing left to save, rather than sell, or give it away, so someone could have saved it 25 yrs ago ?
No, someone will buy it for the tags and title and resurrect with all replacement parts as an "investment grade, numbers matching" Indy car and try to sell it for a fortune in a couple years. This pattern has become predictable with once valuable cars that have been left to rot to nothing.
