Hmmm...

The thing I struggle with (and I admit it may very well be my limited perspective, as I don't have the restoration skills that other members here have) is that I tend to put a value on what I'm actually getting for my money and not what is potentially there.

There's way more actual car in the Maryland bird than in the Carlisle Camaro - and for exactly one-third the price.

So, re the $2,400.00 Camaro, you get a rear axle that looks ok and a transferable title and VIN plate. To me, that's like paying $2,400.00 for a deed to a house, but knowing you still need to build the house, which would be a good start if you could build the house yourself. Guess it's what you are capable of and have the time to do.
