72 Fj40 - $300

There is a 72 FJ for $300 near me. The article says for parts. Is there any value to this, it looks mostly rusted. Would a restoration cost me way too much for this condition, or would turning it into a crawler be a better choice? Suggestions and Opinions are welcome. Thanks

Got any pix?? $300 is cheap for most any cruiser, but rust could make it a bad deal. Is it all stock, or is it modified?
72 has drum brakes, front birfield joints, 3speed trans (column shift?), 4.10 gears.

If nothing else, you could probally part it out on the Landcruiser forums and make some money...
