My son is about to become the owner of a 75 220 diesel 4 door that was abandoned on his property in Nevada by a renter. I was there last weekend and only got a chance to have a quick look at it - It has a manual 4 speed transmission, we have not started it, but a look under the hood shows what looks like a fairly clean engine with an A/C unit. The best feature of the car is the front grill, complete with nice chrome, given the age and the condition of the chrome, it looks like it has spent most of it's life in the desert. Paint is faded-out beige, but all body panels are straight. It looks like it is a Euro model. Interior is aged with torn seats and shot carpets, but the dash has a nice instrument unit and the original radio. Like 14% of Nevada, my son has a lot of time on his hands these days, so I have suggested to him he dismantle the car and sell it piece-by-piece on ebay and craig's list. Do you think I am giving him good advice ? Is there a collector following for this car, or is it just another junkyard refugee? Any other info on this car, and advice on any parts that might have special value, would be appreciated! The car is in restorable condition, if the motor isn't blown or something. He seems to think after conversations with the renter is that the car just needs a new battery and an owner that can afford to put tags on it.
