Well if your planning on dropping a motor in it and the body is good shape i'd say go for it

Re: is it worth it? (ek_ant)
I would think it was worth $1400. People will say "No more than blue book" but if its what you want and the parts were install correctly I don't see why it wouldn't go for $1400.
New motor would probably only cost you mabe 400. And if you wanted to do a swap it wouldn't matter if the car is running or not.
If the body is in mint shape like you said I would buy it. (but I don't like hatches, I'll stick to my heavy, slow coupe, thank you very much)
