I see budget is a big deal.... If you don't have the cash to buy a decent project to start with, you wont have the cash to build it either, or it will take years & a ton frustrations finding all the needed parts... I say "just wait tell the Z28 sells too, then try to buy a driver or at least a much more complete car", you will be far better off in the long term, be patient, don't just jump into a car your going to have to spend a ton of time & money on just to get it an empty shell ready for paint & a roller, there are drivers out there for decent prices, with all the little parts you will need to complete a project, you may have to bite the bullet & look beyond your local areas, maybe even look south or west were the cars have less rot & rust issues, but IMHO there are far more complete & far better cars out there, for not too much cash, that will be allot easier/cheaper to get on the road...
