Strip back to bare metal, weld and quality sprayjob. $4-5k
Engine. $1k for a basic rebuild. Could spend way more.
Decklid. $300
2 bumpers $300
Windscreen $150
Brakes and suspension will probably need a rebuild if the rest of the car is that bad.
$1k maybe.
Full interior retrim. $1500
Thats about $8000 withou even trying yet for a car that probably wouldn't fetch more than 5k when complete.
There just isn't any substitute for buying a good car in the first place unless you have a lot of very talented friends who will work for beer and pizza.
Just my opinion obviously.
