So I've Been browsing Ebay, This just popped up, i got access to workshops and such, but the question is, is it really worth to restore it?I Figure if i do, ill probably drop a RB engine in possibly, but anyone know how much body panels are and such?Im not sure as i've never actually driven or bought a 350 before, so im wondering how much it typically is to get replacement parts

It Does not have to be street legal, as i intend to use it for the SCCA races, so any suggestions are open.Thanks

So after actually figuring out that just to get the unibody fixed and how it's gonna cost roughly 2k where i live, im not sure if it's really worth it you know?

If I had a $500-$1000 wrecked Z in my area... I'd snap it up in a minute.

$2000 for bodywork, $15000 for engine & mods, $5000 for racing gear (roll-cage and the like, no iterior needed) and I'd have me the track-day special I've always wanted... At most, it would come to $25000. And it would EAT UP any track.

Well the problem is im moving, to a small a** townhouse, e got a mustang a bronco and 2 bikes lol, so the garage is full and theres no place nearby to setup my workshop, normally i would be "Yeah! Working on cars, fun fun." But in the process of moving everything it's more like "Crap, can't work on cars"
