    You could not afford to build a 240 shell car, yet you think getting a 67 fastback is going to be easier? Its going to cost 4x as much to restore a 67 then it would a 240 roller car.

    Ok well in case you missed it, which I think you did, I had no job, nor a DD. I made a retard move buying a project. Now I have a job with good pay (for my age at least) and a DD (which is the laughing stock of Top Notch).

    I know how much it will take, but at least now I can take my time on it.

    Look at it this way a already factory non-frame off resto car will cost you around $30-40,000. A frame off resto mod one being $60k+. Now if you buy one for a free grand thats going to need to be restored or a good bit of work done its going to take you a few years and probably $20,000+.

    Not knocking you just saying...

    How was I confuzed? From what I read its pretty straight forward. What I dont understand is why your taking this so seriously? You asked for suggestions and suggestions if what I am giving you.

    What do you do for a living and have you graduated high school yet?
