Looks like you grabbed a good deal. It should clean up nicely. Please post pics of the finished product, I'd love to see the results. I'm just starting an optima project myself. Dang those original sand super tires are hard to find!

Though, beat up, this has some great parts on it. Turnbuckles, belt conversion, gold chassis and motor guard. Who knows, maybe there's a ball diff in the tranny cases!! Post some pics when you get it.
