i have had the pleasure (read painstaking labour) of restoring a 1968 OHC 1bbl
i have owned the car for about 6 odd years and got it specifically for the engine
anyway, long story short the project was put on hold for about 2 years (sold my loft and bought a house).
many a times it came across my mind to sell it and give up on the whole ordeal. by this (money and time and research) point i could have easily built up one of the new camaro shells fully to the tits@!
at the end of the day! i too would know that i would regret selling it
count your pennies and the dollars count themselves my mom used to say!
easiest thing to do (which is what i did), is go out and buy a decent car cover, get rid of the battery (that way you can't show it 'running' to anyone remotely interested) and just do it in smaller peices (read: price points)
