On the hunt - questions about prices

Fender tags are repoped all day long, like the guy said, if body numbers match dash vin? Its that car, in that year the eng block and trans had vin stamped in them, unless replacement block,.
If you want a project, check out what it will cost you to get it to condition you want, or look for car already done in your price range. Better to work with members on here than what you might run into on craigs list?????? At least on fabo no murderers!!! Some of us might have worped sense of humor!
All this number stuff, factory made car stuff...... Its upo to you, do ya want a duster with a 340 stuffed in it or one the assemblyline guy stuffed in i back in the day?? Are you the show car number guru purist type??? Or want just a fun light car with a 318 or 360 for maybe much less????? All depends on what floats your boat and what ya have to spend!??? The economy is flat, the collector car market is still soft, there are priobably 20 cars for sale for every 1 buyer, at least here in u s. My opinion....
