I'd love to have and do some sort of a project with it but no time / money to devote to it.

You should list it with BAT (bring a trailer) auction. I bet it would sell there for close to what you want.

Does it turn into a submarine like in the James Bond Movie? $2500.

215 hp and weigh right around 2500 lbs. I think the sticker price in 1988 was right around 70k.
