New Guy in GA

You can build it how you want it.

Are you planning a councourse, crazy high dollar resto or just a presentable resto, or a mildly modified restomod?

What part of Georgia are you from?

Might be able to help you out with connections and guys with sweet skills to get that body ironed out, and pretty much anything else you need done.

If it's in a million pieces I would not offer too much for it, especially if there is alot of rust work, hopefully the owner is not looking to make a fortune.

Have you verified everything is #'s matching? Gotta be careful.
