Here's what history I know of the car:
I bought it from an old man who owned a small machine/welding shop in Donna, Texas...it was his "shop car" and he only spoke Spanish. His son told me that they got the car from his cousin, who purchased the car at auction circa 1991, so there probably haven't been many owners of the car since Texas Department of Public Safety had it.
Car barely ran when I bought it, but after an oil change, plugs, wires, cap, rotor, etc... it ran extremely well. I wouldn't hesitate to re-hone and re-ring everything. Like I said, this is a great project car that's just some elbow-grease away from being really nice.
Edit: To the right person, I would be willing to negotiate a little.
