1971 220
 

Found a 1971 220 in a barn, abandoned. Last started 4-5 years ago but was driven into the barn. The owner said I could have it. Is this a car an average DIYer can piddle with. Has a 4 cylider, automatic,free of rust but some collision damage to the door. Frame is OK.
What about parts availability?
Any and all thoughts welcome.
I just hate to see the car rot away (I may be too late)

You will want to see if the engine is locked-up OR if it will turn freely.

Of course the fuel tank & carb will need work before anything else.

Most all parts are still avail from many sources. USED body parts are the ONLY way to go for the dents!

will keep you posted, I am going to try and take a closer look in next week or so
