Anyone who knows me well knows that I make stupid decisions all the time, but even I would not attempt to restore that car. I'm not sure whether that opinion falls into the "stupid" category or the "finally making good decisions" category, but I agree with the wise men here who all state that even parts from that car might not be worth much given the "storage" conditions.
My advice: put it on eBay with a $8K reserve and see what happens. Someone might actually pay $20K for it. It would not surprise me.
Hey, very few people can ever claim they owned a Mangusta once in their lives and you at least have that now!
