Looks like a 1953 Chevy. I think the turn signal lens is salvageable. One less thing to worry about when you start your restoration!!

It would make a nice rat rod. The new owner wouldn't have to work on the "patina".

The grill and bumper are worth something even in that condition, I would salvage it.

I agree with that. I did some checking and most front clips sold for restoration don't have the bumper and grill included.
