Honestly? Ok, here goes.

First, your rear suspension is broken.
Second, someone has stolen your front axle and just tucked the wheels back into the empty space.
Third, the rust needs to be taken care of - get it sandblasted and treated, then repaint. New bonnet and door wouldn't go amiss!

But apart from that, as a small window ragtop, it looks like it could be the basis for a nice little Cal Looker! Grin
