is it all worth it?
that looks like a really clean car...
also, buying a car that is already done takes all the fun out of the hobby, i have over $30,000 into my 71 and alot of the work was done by me and my dad, and the body/paint was done by my dads friend for around $5000 .
this was my first mopar (used to build chebbys) and the cost is rediculous, i can understand how people spends $50k + on an Ebody
guess it depends how bad the rust is and what it is going to take to fix it. its a73 6 cyl car so its not really anything special. there are some pretty damn good deals out there right now. its almost always cheaper to buy a done car then it is to do all the repair. i figure ya buy a clean done car then personalize it. i'm real close to pulling my yellow dart apart and transferring everything to a clean body. know what kind of money i'll have into paint and body work? hell even doing the work myself with friends help i'll bet it will be close to $8000. not sure its even worth it..
now if there is something really sentimental about it then that takes all logic away from it..lol
heres an example for ya...
we picked this up for $4000. the car is spotless original paint and int, and runs awesome ( only a 6 cyl car)... can you do your car to this condition for $4000? deals are out there. just have to be patient and ready to jump on it when they pop up.
