the body is very good shape for its age as I just finished doing all the patch work which it didnt need much compared to other cars. Regarding the engine im, planning on doing that as a winter project since i wont be driving the car then. I have a few options on this. I can rebuild a turbo motor i have that needs a crankshaft to be machined, bearings, As for the compression on it its still very good. I was thinking of sticking of all the non turbo accersories on it.

i also have an extra non turbo short block that can be rebuilt with about $3000 into it. itll need pistons, sleeves, bearings and possibly connecting rods and a crankshaft. another thing im gonna have to consider the cost to balance engine after im done.

So ill look into a few options. I can do the work but its figuring out which will make the most sense in terms of money.
