If you can, score the motor, and Fuel injection stuff. Other than some minor changes, this stuff is identical 1976-1983.5. The tranny can be useful, if you are handy. I'm not positive about brake hardware, but I think some of it is the same. As far as trinkets, that's it.

However, the body from a bay window makes a nice chicken coop, or small potting shed. With some waterproofing/rust prevention, it could be a useful hot-house for winter vegetables/flowers. Remove the windows and steam clean it, and you could submerge it as an artificial reef/Bass haven in your favorite fishing hole.

The possibilities are endless.
