Thanks for the input guys.
I mentioned my plans to some friends and they said the car looked ugly lol. But I still find it quite appealing in a unique way. There are a lot of older cars out there I kinda fancy but I like this one above most for its styling and uniqueness, plus it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
I'm thinking that extra parts car will help greatly in sourcing parts. I'll have a work car so my intention is to fix it up and use it on occasion. I think I'm gonna do it, just need to figure out what to do in terms of where to actually put the two cars.
But anyway where would you guys recommend I go to start actually learning about what to do with it?
