It looks like a good fixer-upper that can be driven while being whipped into shape. From the discription most of it is there so you won't have to round up a lot of parts. The 72 is a low compression engine car that is rated a 85 HP and is by no means a speedball, however it is a stick shift which helps, they do not get 40MPG but in proper tune it should do between 25 & 30 on the highway. Body work needed don't look too bad with the LF fender being the biggest undertaking, these cars a unibody and the only things that unbolt from it is the doors and headlight buckets. Another thing to consider is that the car is in the state of Washington, so getting it shipped to Ohio must be added to the price and you are at the mercy of pictures and owner discription, so bid accordingly. Hope that answers some of your questions, and you can get plenty of help and advice on this site, happy hunting.
