A good example of buying a 70 Duster done rather than building one
I figure 20 grand and you can drive it work on little things that "bug ya" yea makes sense. I bought my swinger in the 90s when they weren't 20 grand, but mine was a basket case. Do I have 20 in it? probably till it is done yes. I picke d up a fox body mustang convertible back in 2010,again not 20 grand, not even 5 but I drive it and fix things as needed. Its all in what ya want to do ,if paint and body is your experience for fun, go for it. They are more rusty now than in the 90s though.
