Don't worry about the harness. If you can hook up a TV and game console, you can do this. You might need beer though.
Yes, the body is pretty dang good IMHO. I'm not over-imagining this.... I know it's more $$$ and more work, but it's nont like a huge investment up front, nor a huge over all investment, nor does it have to be done right away. I have other cars to drive. It's not like I have to have it Monday morning to get to work (if I had both 323's in pieces for some reason). I can leave it down in Portland where it is now at my dad's house for a while so that I don't drive my wife crazy with it sitting around for now. I can do the work down there necessary to get it driveable to bring up to Seattle or even tow it for that matter on a car dollie if I had to someday this spring. I have a set of tires on rims ready to go in my garage (one more thing to help clear out some parts). I would be slowly, carefully looking for a rebuilt head that I might even have some fun porting first since I'm sure that's one of the things this car needs. I have tons of spare parts in my garage. And, best of all, I have you guys for moral support and expert advice.
Unfortunately, the guy says his neighbor is interested in it. Sounds like I may have been pushed down to second fiddle for now. Could be he's trying to play games to see if I might go back up to $600 which is where he originally bottomed out and held strong. I'm not moving off the $500 mark.... well, maybe $550.

Dam it, dam it, dam it!!! He sold the car to his neighbor because the neighbor offered him $600. I missed out! Dam it!
*I wonder if Terry bought it and told him to say it was his neighbor?*
Oh well.... guess I'll have to keep dreaming of more projects to do that I don't have time for.....
