What happened to the reasonably priced project car?

I got a decent 70 dart swinger /6 auto, basically complete 99.70% rust free, just some holes started under the vinyl top. Bought it for $400.00 & had it shipped 65 miles to my area at that price Please don't shoot me for being a complete idiot, I already punched myself in the face, I passed on a basket case 68 340 gts shell, not completely I cut the roof off of it &the rear quarters & tail section, trunk & some other stuff, the front clip was long gone. I paid 400 for the car & the guy parted out the rest. Yeah, turns out 68 darts are 1 of my dream cars, maybe I shouldn't post this, sorry guys
