I think the only reason people buy these is if they need stuff like lights etc or vin/log book

To be fair the 1600e would be a good source of parts if you had one on the go as s project as it looks complete?

Got to be the most rotten car I've seen in a while?

There must be a few people interested in it as the bids are going up. Looking closely at the photos again I guess some parts like the dash, steering wheel, front grill, front bumper, front lights/indicators are salvageable for a 1600e project but the body is beyond repair imo.
