Hi there. Its been some time since I left the scene, and I have came up with this crazy restoration idea since then. There is a red painted 81 5 speed manual car that is rotting behind a office building for 7 years. the guy wants to to sell it to me for about 7k and is a mess. my thoughts were to buy the car mainly for parts and its identity title vin plates etc. Then figure out the cost of buying virutally a whole new car dissabmled from DMC Huston out of as many nos parts as possible. with some liberties like stage II and EFI. Basically everything from underbody to doorpanel would be nos or rebuilt. I would be hoping to sell the "donor" red car as parts to give back the cost of the new parts a little. I am hoping all said and done from donor car purchase to all parts hopefully aim around under 40k. I have experience in these cars and could do most of the work myself.
Any thoughts.?
regards,
Jason.
