As long as all the expensive stuff is there I'd go for it. Things like glass, stainless trim, interior, ect. If they are in good shape I'd grab it. Also as long as the body isn't complete junk too. I know my Rx-4 had rust in the main chassis in the frame rail above the front tires behind the fenders. Also had rust in behind the rocker panel on the passenger rear side. Another bad rust spot is the front fenders where the structural skeleton piece is bonded to the fender skin. All in all it wasn't hard to repair all that stuff. Parts can be found still, it takes a bit off digging but you uncover sources pretty quick. This also depends on what direction you want to take with the car. Keeping it 100% stock is much harder than going the modified route.
