No battery box, no battery tie down, missing ducting panels in the front cowl, sideways air flow meter, missing AC related equipment, missing FTP lenses, and what appears to be a hand formed brake line going to the rear of the car. Check for brake leaks and rust underneath.

If it's cheap and you have some money left over to put in it then it could be a good project. I don't pay top dollar for someone's hack job. I'll end up spending more time fixing their mistakes than I will getting the car to run and drive like it should. Be cautious.
