So many factors to this one, but one thing's for sure: it ain't worth no $6600. In perfect, original condition, maybe. But like you said, seats and headliner are bad, it doesn't have the original motor (and the replacement isn't correct for the year), and it sounds like it needs a re-paint and some other work. Mechanicals for this car are readily available, but trying to replace missing trim (moldings, side glass, front fender ornaments, etc...) can be nearly impossible, or extremely expensive. And it would be more valuable if it had the bucket seats instead of the bench.

Worst part is, some fool will probably come along and plunk down the $6600 !!!!!!
