There are a lot of inexpensive things you can do to preserve your car. Use some of the rust cure products and then as mentioned put a Maco type paint job on it. Work on the small stuff and keep it driving, even if it's just down the street and around the block. Don't get inpatient, look at it as a long time goal. One day you will get to the point where you have the means to do a full up restoration, but if you sell the car, it will take 3 to 4 times the cost to get back to where you are now. DON'T SELL YOUR CAR, oh you can think about it, but don't do it!

hopefully you have a vin tag if not agree parts car otherwise drive it like you stole it and make a plan to restore it as you go I move mine after 5 years yesterday and what a thrill it was just to roll it out of the shop on it's own power ..defiantly motivating..
